Cast!

Rockefeller's busy giving dough away;
|
Chevrolet is busy making cars;
|
Hobo, you keep busy when they throw away
|
Slightly used cigars.
|
Hobo, you've no time to shirk.
|
You're busy keeping far away from work.
|
|
The weather' s getting fine.
|
The coffee tastes like wine.
|
You happy hobo, sing,
|
"Hallelujah, I'm a bum again!"
|
Why work away for wealth
|
When you can travel for your health?
|
It' s spring, you hobo, sing,
|
"Hallelujah, I'm a bum again!"
|
Your home is always near;
|
The moon's your chandelier;
|
Your ceiling is the sky,
|
Way up high.
|
|
The road is your estate,
|
The earth your little dinner plate;
|
It's spring, you hobo, sing,
|
"Hallelujah, I'm a bum again!"
|
