I am a lonesome hobo Without family or friends, Where another man's life might begin, That's exactly where mine ends. I have tried my hand at bribery, Blackmail and deceit, And i've served time for ev'rything 'cept beggin' on the street.
Well, once i was rather prosperous, There was nothing i did lack. I had fourteen-karat gold in my mouth And silk upon my back. But i did not trust my brother, I carried him to blame, Which led me to my fatal doom, To wander off in shame.
Kind ladies and kind gentlemen, Soon i will be gone, But let me just warn you all, Before i do pass on; Stay free from petty jealousies, Live by no man's code, And hold your judgment for yourself
