Street to Lean On

Bag lady's complainin' to the cop on the beat
 She says she got nowhere to go, she got nothin' to eat
 Cop says, "Lady, have you considered a life of crime?
 You know you can eat real good when you're doin' time"
 And she has got no galleria, she got no mall
 All she's got is the street to lean on
 And the gutter when she falls, yeah

 Do you see them gang bangers? They're gonna have their fight
 You know they're gonna knock somebody's teeth out
 Maybe put out somebody's lights, huh
 We're gonna have to bust 'em, put 'em all away in jail
 You know it's the nineteenth time this month, ain't going to be no bail
 And they have got no galleria, they got no mall
 All they got is the street to lean on
 And the gutter when they fall

 Fat lady with the wig on, she's down here buyin' antiques
 She says "Can't you control these kids? They're actin' like a, a bunch of freaks"
 And the kids are givin' her the finger, they re talkin 'bout takin' her purse
 And the, the street keeps gettin' hotter, the traffic keeps gettin' worse
 And they have got no galleria, they got no mall
 All they got is the street to lean on
 And the gutter when they fall, yeah
 Do you see that politician? Don't he look sincere?
 You know he will promise you anything, as long as he's down here
 But he's gonna go home to The Valley, to his house and lawn
 And we will still be here when he is gone
 And we have got no galleria, we got no mall
 All we got is the street to lean on
 And the gutter when we fall, yeah
 We got this street to lean on and the gutter
