Mono Inc., Eric Fish - A Vagabond’s Life songtext (lyrics)

Here comes a barrow, rumbling down the lane
Some call him a thief
Some said he was insane
Straining in the darkness
Sleeping in the day that's what they say
A lifeless body in a mothy robe
A worn-out hat and a perforated coat
Nobody's gonna miss him or
Gather at his grave that's what they say

What's your name, vagabond?
Where have you been?
What's your aim, vagabond?
What have you seen? Where do you come from
And what do you strive?
Come tell me about a vagabond's life

Ashes to ashes, the glow of thrombose
Leaves off society, he was one of those
Was living on others, put all us to shame
That's what they say
He walked with a limp but he'd been around
From far east to west with
A northwind down south
He was rendered an outlaw was time to repay
That's what they say

What's your name, vagabond?
Where have you been?
What's your aim, vagabond?
What have you seen? Where do you come from
And what do you strive?
Come tell me about a vagabond's life

Don't call it murder, how can you dare?
Turn around and leave
You shouldn't really care
All cases closed and pauper's grave
That's what they say

Rest in peace, vagabonds
Where have you been?
Rest in peace, vagabonds what have you seen?
Where did you come from
And what did you strive?
Come tell me about a vagabond's life, yeah

Rest in peace, vagabonds
Where have you been?
Rest in peace, vagabonds what have you seen?
Where did you come from
And what did you strive?
