Oh don't make him ask you oh don't make him beg
He was a war hero and that's how he hurt his leg
He killed 30 injuns with one cannonball
And he's just an old hobo asleep out in the hall

A wife and five children who live in L.A.
They miss their dear daddy who's gone so far away
They still have his picture It's hung on the wall
He's just an old hobo asleep out in the hall
