The Bum

Cold and hungry with nothing to eat
I can only wish for shoes on my feet
As I shiver in the snow and the sleet

People walk by who have enough and more
Those who can buy anything in a store
But can't afford me a look 'cause I'm poor

And though I beg but just a crumb
They say nothing as though they're dumb
I'm not a man, I'm just a bum
