 Verse 2


 Show me the alley, Show me the train


 Show me the hobo who sleeps out in the rain


 And I'll show you a young man with so many reasons why


 There but for fortune go you or I, hmm-hmm hmmm


 


 Verse 3


 Show me the whiskey stains on the floor


 Show me the drunkard as he stumbles out the door


 And I'll show you a young man with so many reasons why


 There but for fortune go you or I, hmm-hmm hmmm
