Sleeping on the Sidewalk Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I was nothing but a city boy
My trumpet was my only toy
I've been blowing my horn
Since I knew I was born
But there ain't nobody want to know
[Chorus 1]
I've been
Sleeping on the sidewalk
Rolling down the road
I may get hungry
But I sure don't want to go home
[Verse 2]
So 'round the corner comes a limousine
And the biggest grin I've ever seen
"Here, sonny, won't you sign
Along the dotted line"
What you saying, are you playing
Sure you don't mean me?
[Chorus 1]
I've been
Sleeping on the sidewalk
Rolling down the road
I may get hungry
But I sure don't want to go home
[Verse 3]
They took me to a room without a table
They said blow your trumpet into here
I played around as well as I was able
And soon we had the record of the year
I was a legend all through the land
I was blowing to a million fans
Nothing' was a-missing
All the people want to listen
You thought I was a happy man
[Chorus 2]
And I was
Sleeping like a king
Never touch the road

I don't get hungry
And I sure don't want to go home
[Verse 4]
Now they tell me that I isn’t so fashionable
An' I owe the man a million bucks a year
So I told them where to stick the fancy label
It's just me and the road from here, yeah
[Chorus 1]
I'm sleeping on the sidewalk
Rolling down the road
I may get hungry
But I sure don't want to go home, yeah
Yeah, yeah
