Hunger and Cold — текст песни (Phil Ochs)

I`ve been all around your dirty old city
been all around your dirty old town [shades of ewan maccoll --.ed]
i`ve slept in your alleys, i`ve slept in your subways
hunger and cold, they follow me down

Chorus:
hunger and cold, hunger and cold
i wouldn`t mind but i`m growing so old
but as low as i am, you know i`m still a man
and i wouldn`t mind but i`m growing so old

only last year i was rolling in money
only last year the good times would roll
only last year my friends were so many
but only last year was so long ago

(Chorus)

it`s all so easy to throw me in prison
it`s all so easy to just walk on by
but it`s not so easy to see a man hungry
it`s not so easy to look in his eye

(Chorus)

yes there`s poison in my cheap rotten liquor
there`s poison in every old garbage can
but the worst kind of poison
is in your own brain
when you look at me and forget i`m a man.
