black flood dixon - other people's problems lyrics
there’s a woman at the metro i see her every day
her back is stooped so low
it’s as if the world were chained to her neck
everywhere she goes
she asks me for a bit of food whenever i walk by
or any change to spare
but i know that she would be satisfied
with just a simple prayer
there’s a boy on the corner with haunting blue eyes
and he always wears the same clothes
he moves through the streets with an urgency
that most of us never know
and he’s washing the windshields moving car to car
when he almost makes it to mine
now the light’s turned green and there’s no time left to wonder
where that boy will sleep tonight
and i just walk away and go about my day
with a lightness of being
because why should i concern my self
with other people’s problems?
now the long day has ended and i make my way home
home to the family i love
and i’m re-ssured as i fix my drink
that what i’ve done is enough
still i’ve got a feeling, a certain unease
that i’m just a man in disguise
with nary a thought for the woman or the boy
that by the grace of god go i
and i just walk away and go about my day
with a lightness of being
because why should i concern my self
with other people’s problems?
oh i just walk away and go about my day
with a lightness of being
because why should i concern my self
with other people’s problems?
