Living like an animal alongside the road
Laying hard and sleeping light
Living like an animal alongside the road
From the early night to morning light
Living like an animal alongside the road
Laying hard and sleeping light
Living like an animal alongside the road
From the early night to morning light
Living like an animal alongside the road
At times I woke up hard and cold
Feeling like I was run down old
Sleeping like an animal alongside the road
Feeling like I was run down old
Sleeping like an animal alongside the road
At times I wondered if I’d survive
One day at a time I stayed alive
Other times I slept hard and cold
‘Cause I forgot that all important cardboard
Living like an animal alongside the road
One day at a time I stayed alive
Other times I slept hard and cold
‘Cause I forgot that all important cardboard
Living like an animal alongside the road
‘Cause I was sleeping like an animal alongside the road.
And I survived with hard strife
Living like an animal alongside the road.
And I survived with hard strife
Living like an animal alongside the road.
At times I wonder if I’ll be alive
I was worse than an animal alongside the road
It was the hardest life I’ve ever known
Living like an animal alongside the road
I was worse than an animal alongside the road
It was the hardest life I’ve ever known
Living like an animal alongside the road
I tell you it’s something I’ll never forget
It was long-term pain and torment
Living like an animal alongside the road
Worse than an animal alongside the road.
It was long-term pain and torment
Living like an animal alongside the road
Worse than an animal alongside the road.
