Poor Old Lady
Im stressed
Im depressed
Trying to get more rest
I have no where to go
as the birds fly to their nest
Tired of wearing the same clothes
Im all dirty and lazy
knowing that im a poor old lady
Wonder if people think im crazy
Im living through the struggle
as I tend to figure out this hard puzzle
I lay on hard ground
I have nothing but this bag
Picking up this cup I found
I ask myself "Do I belong here"?
as I walk and wipe my tears
Dear lord can ya hear me
or is it cause they dont care for me
Screaming at the top of my lungs
but what I fear is drugs and guns
I need a place to stay
as I watch the birds fly away.
