up the papers in his worn out shoes<br \/>\nIn his eyes you see no pride and held loosely by his side<br \/>\nYesterday&#8217;s papers, telling yesterday&#8217;s news<\/p>\n<p>Chorus:<br \/>\nSo how can you tell me, you&#8217;re lonely<br \/>\nAnd that for you the sun don&#8217;t shine<br \/>\nLet me take you by the hand and lead you through the streets of London<br \/>\nI&#8217;ll show you something to make you change you mind<\/p>\n<p>Have you seen the old girl who walks the streets of London<br \/>\nDirt in her hair and her clothes in rags<br \/>\nShe&#8217;s no time for talking; she just keeps right on walking<br \/>\nCarrying her home in two carrier bags<\/p>\n<p>Chorus<\/p>\n<p>In the all night cafe at a quarter past eleven<br \/>\nThe same old man sitting there all alone<br \/>\nLooking at the world over the rim of his tea cup<br \/>\nEach tea last and hour, then she wanders home alone<\/p>\n<p>Chorus<\/p>\n<p>Have you seen the old man outside the seaman&#8217;s mission<br \/>\nHis memory fading like the medal ribbons that he wears<br \/>\nIn our winter city, the rain cries a little pity<br \/>\nFor one more forgotten hero in a world that doesn&#8217;t care<\/p>\n<p>Chorus<br \/>\nChorus<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Have you seen the old man in the closed down market Kicking up the papers in his worn out shoes In his eyes you
