Desperate Man Songtext

It's cold in the alley and it's cold upon the stair But he's got to keep on running - he knows he'll never get there The long night is cruel, he can never go home And he's out on the street and he's feeling so alone Chorus Oh Lord he is a desperate man They've used him, abused him and fooled him again Oh Lord he is a desperate man, Oh Lord he's a desperate man Three kids between one and five and another on the way And his poor little lovely, she looked older every day Think of all the chances that he lost upon the way Opportunities that vanished like a needle in the hay Chorus
