Well I'll s ing you a song ain't very long
About and old man who never done w rong.
H ow he died no one can say
They found him dead in the street one d ay.
Well the c rowd they gathered one fine morn
At the man whose clothes and shoes were t orn
T here on the sidewalk he did lay
They stopped and stared and walked aw ay.
Well the poli ceman came and he looked around
said "Get up old man or I'm talking you d own."
He j abbed him once with his bully club
The old man then rolled off the c urb.
Well he j abbed him again and loudly said
"Call the wagon this man is d ead."
The w agon came they loaded him in
I never saw the man ag ain.
Now I've s ung you my song it aint't very long
About an old man who never done w rong.
H ow he died no one can say
They found him dead in the street one d ay.
