Old
man beneath the bridge
on a cold November dawn
Gotta sign the cause for change
And plead to pass it on
Some roll right on by
Never to be seen again
Some roll the windows down
And lay a couple dollars in
The sun don't rise in the morning
And the sun don't set at night
No, the world just turns
In and out of line
Old woman needs some help
But you ain't got time to stop
Even though her bag is ripped
And her produce has all dried
You ain't got nowhere to be
If you truly ask yourself
Truly I'm starting to see
I could be a little more help
The sun don't rise in the mornin'
The sun don't set at night
No, the world just turns
In and out of line
I'm the guy who rolls on by
just searching for the truth
The truth is the things of this world
are not the living proof
No, the living proof
keeps shining like a fort
ress in the night
Standing tall and strong
and burning bright
And the world just turns
In and out of line
Coming home in the evening
Got the family on my mind
It's time to be a father
Time to guide them through this life
There's no feast of egos here
No hun ger for who's right
Can't find the truth in the dark,
it's only in the light
And the sun don't rise in the morning
The sun don't set at night
Ah, the world just turns
In and out alike
Ah, the world just turns
In and out alike
Old man beneath the bridge
on a cold November dawn
He's got a sign that calls for change
