Mr. Walker Lyrics - Singles - Samiam

The old man is out by nine 

His wife died a year ago 

Always wearing his Sunday clothes 

Never seen him talk to anyone 

Liquor stores and churches 

There's one on every corner 

Thanks for all my daily bread 

A can of food, bottle of wine 

And a 99 cent pack of cigarettes 

He's a solid piece of stone 

He ain't got much backbone 

He's a solid piece of stone 

And he's got to get back to the ghetto 

A dusty old bone 

For the dogs to swallow whole 

He likes to go his way alone 

Watch them pick apart this old lone soul 

He's a solid piece of stone 

He ain't got much backbone 

He's a solid piece of stone 

And he's got to get back to the ghetto 

So it goes, he's alone 

They pick apart his old lone soul 

They pick apart his old lone soul 

So it goes, he's alone, my life, my hole 

He's a solid piece of stone 

He ain't got much backbone 

He's a solid piece of stone 

And he's got to get back to the ghetto 

He's a solid piece of stone 

And he's got to get back to the ghetto
