Homeless JJ Cale C G She said she had no money But he was in doubt Am He told her, "I used to be in too" Em But now he was out F "Spare some small change lady G Am And I'll be on my way" C G She looked into his eyes And deep in his soul Am I know she was wondering Em If he was in control F G She muttered to herself, "Those beggars, Am Where do they all come from?" Am C G He said, "I'm not a homeless man F Em I'm a gypsy by trade Am And I'm travelling this land G Am I'm not a homeless man" C G He moved through the streets With his headband low Am Never thinking he would never see Em That woman again, you know F Just sleeping in the doorways G Am And alleys like he always had C G The years rolled by And later on Am Em He spotted an old woman All tattered and worn F Hard times had got her G Am Her clothes were ragged and old C G She said, "I'm not a homeless woman F Em Am I'm a gypsy by trade And I'm travelling this land G Am I'm not a homeless woman" C G Sometime in the daytime Sometimes at night Am Em You will see a couple walking They'll come into sight F G Pushing their carts Am And holding hands C G If you ask to help They'll just run away Am Em Like little children, out to play F G And if you ask, "Who are you" Am They'll always say C G "I'm not a homeless man F Em I'm a gypsy by trade Am And I'm travelling this land G She's not a homeless woman Am I'm not a homeless man"
