Walking down this same road again Not knowing where I'll end up These old shoes are carrying my pain Of broken homes and no one's love I see Rolling up shutters, boys fixing gutters I've got nothing at all Over the summer I lost a brother Like leaves I fell in the fall And now I'm on the breadline Everyone knows your name It's a deadline Oh it's a crying shame You'll be back again Slowly now I'm picking up my feet The tides are turning An offer came to take me from these streets Yes I've got a chance of earning Hoping one day I could Go find a lover, bedsheets and covers A place to ease my mind Maybe tomorrow I'll lose my sorrows But for now I'm wasting time On the breadline Everyone knows your name It's a deadline Oh it's a crying shame You'll be back again This don't have to be forever One day a change will come We've all got to pull together I know it's easier said than done Dreams are sold, growing old Get out of the cold into the sun We could break bread and wine But for now We've gotta break out of the breadline
