FOURTH AVENUE NEW YORK MISSION
I thought the shoes you gave me
Would bring me a change of luck.
I found a job and I worked two days
Loading boxes on a truck.
But just when things were going well
That ol ' weakness came again.
Now here I am all cold and broke
Begging you to take me in.
Fourth Avenue New Hope Mission
Here I am again.
There was no place else to go
You're my only friend.
For something to eat, and a place to sleep
I'd gladly sing your hymns.
Fourth Avenue New Hope Mission
Guess I failed again.
Now as I listen by the door
Whatever men I see
In ragged coats and shoddy pants
They look the same as me.
They taste the soup you give them
And they drink their coffee black.
And just like me
Each time they leave,
They swear they won't be back.
Fourth Avenue New Hope Mission
Here I am again.
There was no place else to go
You're my only friend.
For something to eat, and a place to sleep
I'd gladly sing your hymns.
Fourth Avenue New Hope Mission
Here I am again.
Fourth Avenue New Hope Mission
Here I am again.
