Scarecrow, weathered and weary Fragile and old beyond his years Here we are - chosen In your eyes, the truth lies frozen
Soldier in the city heat Refugee in every street And life goes by Standing in the pouring rain
(Chorus) He's a gentleman with a family A gentle man, living day to day He's a gentleman with pride, one may conclude Sign reads, Gentleman with a family will work for food
Shadows haunting his tired eyes Reaching beyond the empty hand Here we are, the chosen In your eyes, the truth lies, frozen
Soldier in the city heat Refugee on any street And life goes by An apostle to these worn out souls
He's a gentleman with a family A gentle man, living day to day He's a gentleman with pride, one may conclude Sign reads, Gentleman with a family will work for food
