This is a song for my whole town Oh my sweet, sweet Jesus Christ Another Saturday night And Im hangin once again on my private little corner of hell Little Mikey C. Just O.Dd In the alley just a block away Him and my little brother used to play I watched the ambulance take him away His moms gonna take it hard cause his dad just got locked away for 3 ta 5 For a deal he felt he had to make for his family to survive I know the world can be so cold I know the world is so cold I been Hangin on the corner Hey hey hey ! I got nothing to do And I got nothing to lose Hangin, hangin on the corner Wasting away. Another wasted night Another bottle of booze, Alright! And I know that no one cares I can see it in your empty stares when I tell you these tales of woe I tell you these tales of woe because we really care. I know the world can be so cold I know the world is so cold Hangin on the corner Hey hey hey ! I got nothing to do And I got nothing to lose Hangin, hangin on the corner Wasting away. Another wasted night Another bottle of booze, Alright! Down past Hayes Square is where the wealthy dine where they laugh and drink fine wine Well, two blocks over is where the Sergeant died in a hall of fire here we go ! on a warm summers night All you forgotten in the projects I hear Ya. All you numbers in the cell block We care. All you sweatin in the detox We care. To all you hoods that are dodgin cops We care. And to all you bleeding from a broken heart You know youve got a brother here. Hangin on the corner Hey hey hey ! I got nothing to do And I got nothing to lose Hangin, hangin on the corner Wasting away. Another wasted night Another bottle of booze, Alright! Hangin in the corner. Hey hey hey ! I got nothing to lose and I got nothing ro prove to you. Hangin, hangin on the corner, wasting away. I pray my luck will change one day. Some day.
