Old bent and broken like some cast off shoe WHY? After all, I served my country and paid all my dues I never asked to get tired and old, it wasnt my fault Now all I have left is this torn threadbare suit Until it gets dark I'll just wander the streets If I'm lucky find a doorway, get a few hours sleep Food!!! Well at my age a little's enough Some discarded chips, a dry stale crust I served my country well, saw comrades die Now I wish I'd died with them, beside them to lie My only crime was to grow weary and old Who's going to mourn for me as my body grows cold
