[Verse]

Well, not long ago, I was a happy man

Money in my pockets with a ring on my hands

My money's all gone and I'm feeling low

Standing on the corner of Skid Row

[Verse]

My girlfriend left me, she don't want me no more

We had a great big fight just a night before

She said I got no class because she knows

I've been hanging around on Skid Row

[Chorus]

Well people walk by and they stop and stare

They giggle and they snicker at the clothes I wear

It's just another day like it always goes

When you're hanging around on Skid Row

[Verse]

I got an old John Beam with a Van Moore crew

Got a great big hole in the bottom of my shoe

My wine's all gone and I need some more

Standing on the corner of Skid Row

[Chorus]

Well people walk by and they stop and stare

They giggle and they snicker at the clothes I wear

It's just another day like it always goes

When you're hanging around on Skid Row

One more time!
