(SO3)

(H. Aitchison, M. Artamonov, S. Belongie)
Verse(1,3)
he never was a player
never had a lot of money
but he always had a lot to say
walking through the alleys
in the city in the dark
and I never saw him go astray
he came upon a letter
that was lying in the gutter
and the ink on every page had bled
but he took the letter home
and he held it to the light
and I'll tell you what the letter said
CHORUS (1)
it said
have you seen him
walking through the streets at night
have you heard him
brother can you see the light
Verse (2)
he never met his mother
but it never made him bitter
and he always made the ladies sigh
if the listen to the story
and you find it kind of funny
then you'll know that he's the kind of guy
that'll never leave you hanging
when you're backed into a corner
and you feel like everyone abandoned you
if you keep him in your sights
and you turn out all the lights
then you'll know that every word is true
and I said
CHORUS (2,3,4)
