THE GOALS OF A HOMELESS MAN

The homeless man in my city has set new goals
To wear new clothes that are not full of holes
He will ask politely to borrow money from you 
Invest it wisely on a cup of tea or two 

The homeless man in my city has set new goals 
To wear new shoes without battered soles 
He will sing for his supper and learn a new song
Trying to get through life without doing anything wrong

The homeless man in my city has set new goals 
To try and find a place to live instead of looking at keyholes
It's not easy for this poor and homeless man
I just hope he gets by the best he can
