Cold and damp
With a chill in the air
Lost walking the streets
Life doesn't seem fair

Shattered and broken
His hopes and his dreams
His once bright future  
Is not what it seems

He's been rained on road hard
Put away wet
Many miles of pain
He has not seen yet

Beaten up drug out
And left for dead
Only hanging on
By a few old threads

He needs one more drink
To get him through the night
What's happened to him
Just doesn't seem right

All of his life he's been a good man
Does the right thing when ever he can
Bad things happen to good people to
Just be glad it hasn't happened to you
