Beggar man lyrics

Walking your highway at sunset

Smelling the smoke from your fires

Hearing your business transactions

Over the telephone wires

Me I’m a beggar I carry my world

Wrapped up in an old leather bag

I don’t want your fortune

And I don’t want your girl

And I don’t want your riches to rags

Look in my face, see a wise man

I know I don’t know

Look at this place, some take my hand

Nowhere together we’ll go

But I will never be lonely

Just because there’s no one on this road

No no I never will be lonely

Even if there is no one in this world

Heaven and hell you can offer me too

But I cannot afford your price

And I ain’t afraid of Beelzebub’s fire

And I don’t want your paradise

Where can I go then, what can I do,

What how and where should I die?

Oh don’t you know, ask it of someone,

Truly he’ll always lie.

But I will never be lonely

Just because there’s no one on this road

No no I never will be lonely

Even if there is no one in this world

Walking your highway at sunset

Smelling the smoke from your fires

Hearing you crying of freedom

Over the telephone wires
