He's just wanderin'
Got no place to go,
No place to go
Don't nobody know,
Nobody knows him
But he knows the world
And his paintings show all of it's charms

When he plays the guitar
He don't need to be witty
He takes all his sadness
Makes it sound so pretty
People close their eyes when they listen
Suffer the modern world with him

He went to the doctor
Who gave him a prescription
Gave him a prescription
He lost all of his friends
Kept up his rhythm
Kept his rhythm
He picked up the guitar
Tells it everything his tongue can't say
He picked up the guitar
And he tells it everything his tongue can't say

When he plays the guitar
He don't need to be witty
He takes all his sadness
Makes it sound so pretty
People close their eyes when they listen
Suffer the modern world with him

He sees people walking by
With their skateboards in their eyes
And their clothes that say
"We're not alone"
He sees the history in their face,
History that they can't erase
It's to these lines
That he relates
