Not long ago I was a happy man
Money in my pocket and a ring on my hand
Now my money’s all gone and I feel low
Standing on the corner of Skid Row
My best friend left me, don't want me no more
Had a great big fight just a night before
Said I got no class because they knows
I've been hanging around on Skid Row
People walk by and they stop and stare
They giggle and snigger at the clothes I wear
It's just another day like it always goes
When you're hanging around on Skid Row
I got an old John Beam with the pain more through
Got a great big hole in the bottom of my shoe
My wine's all gone and I want more
Stuck In the corner of Skid Row
People pass by and they stop and stare
They giggle and snigger at the clothes I wear
It's just another day like it always goes
When you're hanging around on Skid Row
