lyrics

He’s a man on the street and
He don’t care, where he’s going.
He’s light on his feet, and he’s not scared.
Where he’s turning.
Though he’s blind, he’ll
Find your face in the mirror.
Wash your hands and feet with grace,
In a dried out river, cos
He’s a man on the street and
He don’t care, where he’s going.
He’s light on his feet, and he’s not scared.
Where he’s turning.
Moves around without a sound,
Barefoot on hallowed ground.
At the top of the hill,
There’s only one invitation,
The song is sung, the sky is dark, and
There’s no ovation.
He’s a man on the street, and
He don’t care, where you’re going.
You’re light on your feet, but he’s not scared, and
Your world is turning.
From the west to the east,
Your time’s up, now leave,
He won’t grieve.
Look, look at where he’s been,
Look at what he’s seen,
Look at what he’s beat, now he’s
Walking down your street.
Look at where you’ve been,
Look at what you’ve seen,
Look at what you beat, but now
He’s standing in your street.
He’s a man on your street, and
He don’t care, where you’re going.
You’re light on your feet, but he’s not scared, and
Now he’s knocking.
