Willard |
Willard, he’s a loner |
Living by the railway |
Living by the tracks beside his home |
Willard, he’s a loner |
If you’re going his way |
Say hello, he ain’t got no one to call his own |
Soldiers of glass |
Standing by the trash |
Willard’s coloured bottles in a line |
Soldiers of glass |
It’s funny you should ask |
But they’re the only friends he has to pass the time |
But they’re the only friends he has to pass the time |
And his Mamma knows that he was once a child |
Mamma, she was the first one to hear his cry |
And my Mamma knows that I was once a child |
Could it be we’re all just Willard in disguise? |
Could it be we’re all just Willard in disguise? |
I hear they’re tearing down |
All the buildings in his town |
The house where Willard Jefferson has stayed |
But they can’t tear him down |
No he will always be around |
'Cause he’s as hard as all that old black, river clay |
Yet his Mamma knows that he was once a child |
Mamma, she was the first one to hear his cry |
And my Mamma knows that I was once a child |
Could it be we’re all just Willard in disguise? |
Could it be we’re all just Willard in disguise? |
Willard, he’s a loner |
Living by the railway |
Living by the tracks beside his home |
Willard, he’s a loner |
If you’re going his way |
Say hello, he ain’t got no one to call his own |
