Current song lyrics
I was walking down the street the other day<br />and a sight came before my eyes<br />it was a little hippie boy, I must have been twice his size<br />his appearence typified his strange breed<br />gaudy clothes, long stringy hair hanging down<br />I'd seen perhaps a thousand in my early trips to town<br />as he walked beside me on down the block<br />I noticed no unpleasing smell<br />he might have been on the weed or even LSD<br />but if he was I couldn't tell<br />so we walked together that way through this neighborhood<br />finally he turned around to me<br />and he said friend, you know we're a million miles apart<br />but you know something we can enjoy the sunshine and the weather<br />so why don't we put our differences aside<br />and just talk to each other<br />you see this box beneath my arm<br />to you it's plain, it has no charm<br />but to someone dearest to my heart this box has played a tragic part<br />this little one can't tell you himself about his life and how he died<br />[ Find more Lyrics at www.mp3lyrics.org/UVi ]<br />but if anyone else could speak for him I guess I'm qualified<br />this boy was in Chicago, he didn't know why he was there<br />he was with his family and friends and he didn't really care<br />you might have been one of those<br />who saw the struggle there on your television screen<br />the tragic thing is so much else happened<br />that no one else could have seen<br />a stranger handed this boy a dollar to do a simple chore<br />to carry a package to a nearby hotel<br />and when he returned he'd get two more<br />but when he came back he sort of lost his way walking thru the crowd<br />one of them things you ask yourself, how the Lord allowed<br />but when he was found he was like he is now<br />dreaming sweet and still<br />and in his little hand was a crumpled dollar bill<br />now you can take that dollar<br />get four cents on it compound itquarterly at any downtown bank<br />so they can back some hot new tank or atom bomb<br />well, what I'm going to tell you now, you can stay or you can leave<br />you kind of listened to my story so far but just one more thing<br />it's the same for any hippie, bum or hillbilly out on the street<br />just remember this little boy and never carry more than you can eat<br />now could you help us sing this song, please<br />there will be peace in the valley for him now we pray<br />I will think of the little hippie boy that way
