Well this man knows the ways of life on the underground.
Now passing him by don't you won't hurt his pride.
Now sympathy ain't what he needs to heal his cries.
So load up on your intuition, it's telling you right.
Don't care about his situation, he'll be eating fine.
(Chorus)
Now things are looking up for him.
Don't forget me now old friend.
Got you through the hardest times.
I know you'll be doin' fine,
oh you're doin' fine.
It's been said you should give your life for another man.
Well alright nows your only chance we'd all understand.
you're walking in his shoes don't be knockin' him down.
When you're looking over your shoulder he'll be coming around.
So don't out him through an interrogation, he's got nothin' for you.
Let him walk on by in this so-called Nation, he's just passin'.
(chorus)
