His old coat was worn & ragged, and so were the shoes on his feet
He lived in a box on a sidewalk, it was his only shelter from the streets
He never had two nickels to rub together, never knew the next time he would eat
Most people who saw him, they just passed him by
Guess they couldn’t stand such a pitiful sight
but a young man named Willie thought to himself
“I can’t ignore this poor man’s plight
If it were me, & I were in need
I’d want someone to do me right”
