Song Information:
For a couple years in the mid 80s I was pretty much homeless. I could have stayed with my mother or family members but didn't want to have to deal with the crap that comes with moving back home after falling flat on your ass. So I bounced around. Doing what is known as 'the couch circuit'. Which inspired a collection of tunes titled The Couch Circuit Follies. This song is from that time. I have re-recorded it as the original tape has all but faded to tape noise. Anyway I hope you enjoy this simple ditty.
Song Lyrics:
aint nothin' safe bout a safe house
nothin' free bout the free-world
aint no soup in the soup - line today
ain't lookin for no hand out
i'm willin to work for my meal
i'm a whole lotta down n out fo real
(break)
ain't no bop in this bop n stroll
no heart in this heartless soul
lawd knows its been long gone
ain't lookin to get born again
i'm just needin me a friend
someone who can make me feel at home
im just lookin for a warm bed
a place i can call my own
ain't no side on these side-lines
no port on the port side
just a view of distant shore
nothin' left on da inside
'cept some swallowed pride
hell if i could live on that id be hungry no more
im just lookin fo a place to rest my head
somewhere i can call my own
nothin 'bout this sidewalk a home
