A Man Without a Mission

I'm a man without a mission And no direction I go wherever the wind blows Well they wrecked my brain With guns that sound like thunder And now it's no wonder I've been livin' life this way With my cardboard sign I stand out on your street corner You pass me by and you don't even know my name I spent half my life Fighting for this country's freedoms But since I lost my wife I just can't seem to find my way Well I'm a man without a mission With no direction I go wherever the wind blows If you could spare some change Or share some compassion, maybe Just sit and listen to some things that I have seen I spent all my time tryin' to find a new direction But I lost my mind One bullet at a time I used to stand up tall And greet the world with my convictions I used to lead those men But now I'm sleepin' on the streets With my cardboard sign I stand out on your street corner And you pass me by But you don't even know my name I spent half my life Fighting for this country's freedoms But the only break I seem to find is another man's dime (I'm a man without a mission) And a cardboard sign (Just a man without a mission) I spend all my time tryin' to find a new direction But I lost my mind one bullet at a time Now I'm a man without a mission And no direction I go wherever the wind blows...
