Danny Code

See the old man at the corner of the street

As you cross the other side

Tattered clothes he wears, ragged shoes upon his feet

To keep out the cold of the night

Aren't you glad you're home tonight

The pavement for his bed as he lay beneath the sky

How did it ever get this bad

As he wipes a tear from the corner of his eye

And thinks of the life that he had

Back in the life that he had

He falls away into the night

Did you hear what happened

To Danny Code

Fifty years on the road

All his life

He chased after sunshine

Only to die in the cold

Only to die in the cold

There's a photograph on the table by the door

It's been there so many years

She thinks about the news she received the day before

Too late for the time of the tears

She wonders how the old man died

See the young man at the corner of the street

Glad he found an empty space

It once was occupied by a man he used to meet

It's hard to remember his face

Now that he's taken his place

Do you remember Danny Code

Do you remember Danny Code

Do you remember Danny Code

Do you remember Danny Code

Do you remember Danny Code...
