I'm Not Homeless

I watched him walk, down the street Headed toward the mission For a meal and a place to sleep When he arrived, all the beds were taken That's when I offered him to stay with me. (Spoken)That's when he said: I'm not homeless, no need to worry I've a place with pearly gates and golden streets. No, I'm not homeless and I never will be, There's a mansion in the sky waiting for me. 17 beat instrumental break We found him that next mornin Face down in the ally, windchill 40 below Nobody knew where the old man came from I'll never forget these words written in the snow. (Spoken) And they said: I'm not homeless, no need to worry I've a place with pearly gates and golden streets. No, I'm not homeless and I never will be There's a mansion in the sky waiting for me. Only me and the preacher showed up for the funeral We stood at the grave and sang a song Yeah the sun was shining when the lightening struck As I read these words on that old man's grave stone I'm not homeless, no need to worry I've a place with pearly gates and golden streets. No, I'm not homeless and I never will be There's a mansion in the sky waiting for me. There's a mansion in the sky waiting for me.
