Well not long ago I was a happy man

                             C           G
Money in my pockets with the rings on my hands

                            C       G
My money's all Gone and I'm feelin' low

                          D    G
Standin' on the corner of Skid Row

I got an old John Beam with the pain more through

Got a great big hole in my blue swade shoes

                         C         G
My wine's all gone and I need some more

Standin' on the corner of Skid Row

Well people walk by and they stop and stare

They giggle and they stickle at the clothes I wear

It's just another day like it always goes

When you're hangin' around on Skid Row

We had a great big fight just a night before

She said I got no class because she knows

I've been hangin' around on Skid Row

When you're hangin' around on Skid Row
