I was nothing but a city boy, my trumpet was my only toy
I've been blowing my horn, Since I knew I was born
But there ain't nobody wants to know

I've been sleeping on the sidewalk, rolling down the road
I may get hungry, but I sure don't want to go home

So round the corner comes a limousine, and the biggest grin I ever seen
Here sonny won't you sign, right along the dotted line
What you saying are you playing, sure you don't mean me?

I've been sleeping on the sidewalk, rolling down the road
I may get hungry, but I sure don't want to go home
(Now I tell you what happened...)

They took me to a room without a table, they said 'blow your trumpet into here'
I played around as well as I was able, and soon we had the record of the year

I was a legend all through the land, I was blowing to a million fans
Nothing was a missing, all the people want to listen
You'd have thought I was a happy man

And I was sleeping like a princess
Never touch the road, I don't get hungry
And I sure don't want to go home (Have to have some fun...)

Now they tell me that I ain't so fashionable
And I owe the man a million bucks a year
So I told them where to stick the fancy label
It's just me and the road from here

I'm back to playing and laying, I'm back on the game
I'm sleeping on the sidewalk, rolling down the road
I sure get hungry and, I sure do wanna go home (Yeah)
