You can find me on the corner, on any given day

Some people stare, some people wave

Sometimes it's a dollar, most times a little less

Sometimes a middle finger, or a pity cigarette

I got family out in Phoenix, ain't seen in a while

Voices in my head and a police file

Had rocks for my pillow, hitchhiked a million miles

I used to think a needle's only thing that makes me smile until

Cold soup

Cold soup

Can't say I ever dreamed

Never thought I'd ever be

Sittin' on park bench, cool as a bean

Eating cold soup

Cold soup

Sun shine's all the time when ya ain't got a roof

And your best friend is a hundred proof

It's a shame, and it's sad, but it's the god dang truth

The hardest part is getting used to that ole

Cold soup

Cold soup

Can't say I ever dreamed

Never thought I'd ever be

Sittin' on park bench, cool as bean

Eating cold soup

Cold soup

Don't listen to the half of what I tell ya

Yesterday's paper makes a good umbrella

Down at the mission they'll try to save your soul

But if you sit there and listen, hell they'll serve you up a bowl of that

Cold soup

Cold soup

Can't say I ever dreamed

Never thought I'd ever be

Sittin' on park bench, cool as a bean

Eating cold soup

Cold soup

Cold soup

Cold soup
