Maybe I'm A Beggar

Supertramp

I ain't got too much money, I ain't got too much sins

Long ago I had a dream but that's no recompense

My father was a blind man, my brother was a fool

My mother told me "God is love"

But hatred makes the rules



Teach me to fly

So I shan't drag my feet in the sand

Give me the sky

I would take the whole world in my hand



World, don't you tell me

I cannot last forever

Before you know I'll come and go

And make you if I can



Maybe I'm a beggar, just check your sympathy

They throw away their gentle love

And keep their pain for me



Can we be free, in a world where to love is to own?

Well when will we see, that a man must face life all alone?
