I’m sitting here thinking
And then start to cry
I ask myself, “Do they care?”
“If not, why?”
I spot him three blocks away
If he didn’t eat yesterday
I pray he did today
He sees you coming
You put your head down
Now he’s afraid
And walks away with a frown
He thinks, “I’m so hungry, what shall I do?
Keep walking away, or ask you:
‘Hi miss, my name is James
Can you spare some change?
I’m sorry for my approach
It may seem strange
But I haven’t ate a thing
I’m blessed with anything the lord brings
Thank you miss, have a great day'”
I smiled and went on my way
