Once was a husband Things went south Had us a home 'Til we lost our house Wall Street broker Trashed our stocks Economy folded Livin' in a cardboard box Livin' in a cardboard box
No matter the weather Nothin' feels right Scorchin' in daylight Freezin' at night Beatin' the pavement Holes in my socks I don't seem to fit Nothin' but a cardboard...
People, they stare Aw -they just don't know Or look right past me How'd I get so low? Needin' an address Needin' a job A lil' understanding Don't need to rob
All they can see Are birds of a flock God have mercy Get me outta this cardboard box
