lyrics

playing on the street
sometimes it really sucks
but sometimes in an hours time
i'll make a hundred bucks

sometimes i meet cool people
but mostly they don't care
they'll walk by and ignore more
or give me a judging stare

that's just how it goes in this world
most people will never really care
if you put your heart out in the open
or maybe my music's just annoying

a lady heckled at me one time
she said my music sucked
i laughed and she wouldn't leave me alone
til i walked on down the block77

i've gotten harassed
by police all the time
they say i need a permit
and threaten me with a fine

i've had guys yell in my face
telling me to leave
and sometimes the sun is so hot
i can barely breathe

that's just how it goes in this world
making art is hard just like everything
you've got to do it just for yourself
or it's gonna be real disappointing

sometimes i'll get a crowd
dancing all around
but usually it's just me
standing alone in the middle of town

sometimes i lose my voice
and play til my fingers bleed
i break all my harmonicas
and let me tell ya those things ain't free

i'll play for three hours straight
it's good for cardio
i collect all my dollar bills
and stumble on back home

it's a job just like everything
it can be fun but also frustrating
i'm just trying to practice all my songs
and i guess it all just helps me move on and on
