Lyrics
[Verse 1]
He's got a broken voice and a twisted smile
Guess he's been that way now for quite a while
He's got blood on his shoes and mud on his brim
Did he do it to himself or was it done to him?
[Verse 2]
Now people say that he don't look well
But all he needs, from what I can tell
Is someone to help wash away all the paint
From his purple hands before it gets too late
[Verse 3]
I saw him stand alone under a broken street light
So sincere, singin' Silent Night
But the trees, they were full, and the grass was green
It was the sweetest thing I had ever seen
[Verse 4]
He may move slow
That don't mean he's goin' nowhere
He may be movin' slow
That don't mean he's goin' nowhere
