It's what we all need.

lyrics

A Little Sympathy


standing on the sidewalk
trying to pass the time
minding my own business
people is that a crime
policeman stepped up to me
said you better move along
now people won't you listen
listen to my song
and show me
show a little sympathy

baby said she loved me
treated me so well
but once i lost my job y'all
it all went straight to hell
she said hit the road man
don't want you no more
here's your old brown suitcase
you can find the door
she wouldn't show me
show me any sympathy

i just need a little paper
i mean the kind that's green
pictures of Abe Lincoln
you know what i mean
only need ten dollars
then brother don't you know
i'd buy myself a bottle
and go watch the river flow
maybe it'd show me
show a little sympathy
maybe that river would show me
show a little sympathy
