Sleeping On The Sidewalk

[Intro:]
One, two, three.

[Verse 1:]
I was nothin' but a city boy
My trumpet was my only toy
I've been blowin' my horn since I knew I was born
But there ain't nobody wants to know.

[Chorus:]
I've been sleepin' on the sidewalk
Rollin' down the road
I may get hungry but I sure don't wanna go home.

[Verse 2:]
So 'round the corner comes a limousine
And the biggest grin I ever seen
Come on, sonny, won't you sign right along the dotted line?
What you sayin', are you playin', sure you don't mean me?

[Chorus:]
I've been sleepin' on the sidewalk
Rollin' down the road
I may get hungry but I sure don't wanna go home
(Now, I'll tell you what happened)

[Bridge:]
They took me to a room without a table
They said "blow your trumpet into here"
I played around as well as I was able
And soon we had the record of the year
I was a legend all through the land
I was blowin' to a million fans
Nothin' was a-missin', all the people wanna listen
You'd have thought I was a happy man.

[Chorus:]
And I was sleepin' like a princess
Never touch the road
I don't get hungry and I sure don't want to go home
Have to have some fun.

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3:]
Now they tell me that I ain't so fashion-able
And that I owe the man a million bucks a year
So I told 'em where to stick the fancy label
It's just me and the road from here, yeah
Back to playin' and layin', I'm back on the game.

[Chorus:]
I'm sleepin' on the sidewalk
Rollin' down the road
I sure get hungry and I sure do wanna go home.

[Outro:]
Yeah.
