Just a Bum Lyrics by Michael Hurley

First Songs

1964

Just a bum
All the years that I live people say that my time's been wasted
Sittin' by the fireside dreamin' all night
Makin' love drunk in the meadow 'neath the pale moonlight
Travelin' over land like a natural born man
Just a hobo
Easy come easy go don't ya see don't ya know you're lovin' hobo
Standin' in the rain baby tryin' flag a ride
Open up your door babe its cold outside
I got a little wine hun we'll have a little fun
Just a tramp
Call me what you like see me travelin' down the pike and singing love songs
Sittin' by the firesidе dreamin' all night
Makin' love drunk in the mеadow 'neath the pale moonlight
Travelin' over land like a natural born man
Call me rambler
I guess the times rolled around my feet are up my head is down
I'm a whirlin' all day
I'm gonna catch a freight train before midnight
Mornin' sun will find me anywhere's in sight
Remember that I loved you was my lovin' alright?
Just a hobo
Easy come easy go don't ya see don't ya know you're lovin' hobo
