about

The painting is "New York" by George Bellows (1911)

lyrics

I’ve been down and out living downtown alone
A city’s no place for a man to call home
I’ve been down low, just as low as can be
With no one to talk to and no one to see
The busy streets lonesome in spite of the crowd
The young and the old, the quiet, the loud
The artist and booze hound both wasting away
Paycheck to paycheck, day after day
Then back home to sleep through the night all alone
Somebody take me back home

I’ve been down and out living downtown alone
A city’s no place for a man to call home
Give me the green grass where I used to run
And rivers the shine like jewels in the sun
A night full of stars after light July storms
And falling asleep in my sweet baby’s arms
The city’s bled me dry, as dry as a bone
Somebody take me back home
