Straight ahead rock and roll toe tapper.
I re-mastered this and have added it to my new Statue Records CD "6 Pound Bone".
Story behind the song
Thinkin about life on the street... Literally.

Stoned Cold and Hungry

==========================================
Life on the street ain't no life for me
I used to be part of your society
A couple bad breaks and I lost my sobriety
Kids stopped a callin', wife started ballin', hello anxiety
I wanna get back on my feet once again
Start a new life and get a new friend
But I'm so stoned, cold and hungry
So stoned, cold and hungry
I'll work for food, sell my soul away
I haven't eaten since sometime back in May
Give me your change and I'll wash your Chevrolet
Soon as you're gone I'll be buyin' booze anyway
I wanna get back on my feet once again
Start a new life and get a new friend
But I'm so stoned, cold and hungry
So stoned, cold and hungry
I can't stand to face the day sober
I freeze on the sidewalk and it's only October
I get my best meal by goin' through trash
I got an infection, and some kind of rash
I need a shower and some place to sleep
I get stares like I'm just a creep
I used to be like you now I'm like me
I am the cork and you are the sea
I can not go back to where you are now
I can not get there, I don't know how
I want to lay down and just close my eyes
I want to stay down and to just die
I wanna get back on my feet once again
Start a new life and get a new friend
But I'm so stoned, cold and hungry
So stoned, cold and hungry
