Recorded only with two iPhones. How cool is that!?

lyrics

Oh I wish I were a hobo now.
With the muck and grime upon my brow.
With the great supply of booze, and the dirty smelly shoes, oh I wish I were a hobo now.

Oh I'd love to be out on the street.
Picking out of garbage cans to eat.
All my friends think I am funny when I wave a tin can for money so that I can buy a bit of meat.

"You're fired. You always show up to work with that stupid coat. And that beard, you never shave, you're disgusting! I can't have you showing up for customers like that! You are fired!!"

Oh I lost my job and then my home.
Now I see that I am free to roam.
I will dirty up my face and accept my brand new place, now that I look like a garden gnome.

"Welcome to the hobo community, son. You got any spare change? I'm savin' up to buy me a burger. I love burgers, but I never get to eat 'em."

I'm a hobo, I'm a hobo, I'm a hobo now.

"It's cold. Oh, no wonder, my coat's got another hole in it. Probably one of those rats. I thought I ate them all.
Oh, look at me, resorting to eating rats!
I just want to go home."

Oh I wish I weren't a hobo now.
I wish I could simply clean my brow.
There is not a drop of booze and a
lack of any shoes, oh I wish I weren't a hobo now.

Oh, it's been a year since I've seen a bed.
This is all going to my head.
I have gone a bit insane from the food I don't contain. Well at least I know that I'm not dead.
