earl lives down in a hole in the ground
his coat is all torn and his shoes are gone
got nothing to eat and nowhere to go
all around the town
chorus
well, i ain't done nothing wrong
and i can't get up from down
and i'm on my way back home but
i aint got nowhere to go

earl tells the owner
now what would you do if it happened to you?
youd be hungry too
owner sees red and comes back with a bat
all around every town
chorus
earl's body lies down in a hole in the ground
his coat is gone, there's trash all around
thrown in a heap, to die all alone
all around your town

He's playing folk music for folks and the folks have had a few drinks....
Buy his albums if you want a pristine recording.
