Lyric

I slept last night in a good hotel

I went shopping today for jewels

The wind rushed around in the dirty town

And the children let out from their schools

I was standing on a noisy corner

Waiting for the walking green

Across the street, he stood, and he played real good

On his clarinet, for free

Now me, I play for fortunes

And those velvet curtain calls

I've got a black limousine and two gentlemen

Who escort me through these halls

And I'll play if you got the money

Or if you're a friend to me

But the one-man band by the quick lunch stand

He's been playing real good, for free

Nobody stopped to hear him

Though he played so sweet and high

They knew he had never been on the TV

So they passed his music by

I meant to go over and ask for a song

Maybe put on a harmony

I heard his refrain as the signal changed

He was playing real good, for free

- It's already the end -
