Текст Kaz Hawkins — I Saw a Man

I saw a man alone
Without a house or home
He played and played til dusk
On an old guitar he’d busk
People would pass his way
One note or two he’d play
He needs no pennies thrown
Only your kindness shown

Oh he’s been here before
Yes he’s seen it all before
I saw a man, I saw this man
How tall he did stand
For he was such a man

The women of the night
Stand by to such a sight
Feeding on praying men
To lay beside the pen
He’s seen it all before
He doesn’t want to know anymore
It makes him think of days
When he was paid to play

Oh he’s been here before
Yes he’s seen it all before
I saw a man, I saw this man
How tall he did stand
For he was such a man

He watches youth gone wrong
No innocence for long
He shakes his head in shame
He can’t go back again
Advice he gave to his
And they turned their backs on him
He had it all one time
What was his crime

Oh he’s been here before
Yes he’s seen it all before

So remember if you see this man
It’s just a life that’s dealt his hand
Doesn’t mean he’s not a man
For I can tell you he’s a man
For I can tell you he’s such a man
He’s such a strong, strong man
Yes he was a man.
