There's a man standin' on the corner
With a sign sayin' Will Work For Food
You know the man
You see him every mornin'
The one you never give your money to
You can sit there with your window rolled up
Wonderin' when the lights goin' to turn green
Never knowin' what a couple more bucksIn his pocket might mean
(Maybe) (What if) (he's) (she's) an angel sent here from Heaven
And (he's) (she's) makin' certain that you're doin' your best
To take the time to help one another
Brother, are you gonna pass that test
You can go on with your day to day
Tryin' to forget what you saw in (his) (her) face
Knowin' deep down you could have been (his) (her) savin' grace
What if (he's) (she's) an angel
There's a man
And there's a woman
Livin' right above you in Apartment G
There's a lot of noise comin' through the ceilin'
And it don't sound like harmony
You can sit there with your TV turned up
While the words and his anger fly
But come tomorrow when you see her with her shades on
Can you look her in the eye
A little girl on Daddy's lap
Hidin' her disease with a baseball cap
you can turn the channel
Most people do
But what if you were sittin' in her Daddy's shoes
will load the song up soon. it's the one song that describes perfectly well how people live their life. meaningful to me.
