I was nothin' but a city boy

My trumpet was my only toy

I've been blowin' my horn

Since I knew I was born

But there ain't no nobody wants to know



I've been

Sleepin' on the sidewalk

Rollin' down the road

I may get hungry

But I sure want to go home



So round the corner comes a limousine

And the biggest grin I ever seen

Come on sunny won't you sign

Right along the dotted line

What are you sayin' Are you playin'

Sure you don't mean me?



Sleepin' on the sidewalk

Rollin' down the road

I may get hungry

But I sur don't wanna go home



(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 I was able

And soon we had the record of the year



i was a legend all thruogh the land

I was blowin' to a million fans

Nothin' was a-missin'

All the people want to listen

You'd thought I was a happy man



And I was

Sleepin' 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

An' I owe the man a million bucjks a year

So I told 'em where to stick the fancy lable

It's just me and the road from here



Back to playin' and layin'

I'm back on the game



Sleepin' on the sidewalk Rollin' down the road

I sure get hungry and I Sure o wanna go home

(Yeah)
