There's a sad man walking the road today With an empty bag of treasures That he takes along the way Once I asked him why he sighed With such a melancholy woe He said "If you have to ask, you'll never know" He said The things that I have seen Have turned my eyes to dust And I've walked this road a hundred years And never will adjust The things some men call natural I cannot understand So I guess I'll always be just a sad man But on the day when all people Are respected for their minds And not for all the trappings you can see On the day when all people Leave presumption far behind I'll be happier than you could ever be There's a sad man walking the road today And you have to listen hard To hear the things he has to say He holds his hand against his chest To keep his heart inside Or is he making sure he hasn't died? He said Maybe people as a whole Are generous and such But that argument just doesn't hold If you stretch it out too much So many folks are suffering That I fear that it was planned So I guess I'll always be just a sad man But on the day when all people Learn to live upon this Earth Without destroying those who disagree On the day when all people Understand their neighbors' worth I'll be happier than you could ever be That's what he said to me Ooo la la There's a sad man walking the road today With an empty bag of wishes That are starting to decay Once I asked him where he came from And where he planned to go He said If you have to ask, you'll never know If you have to ask, you'll never know But on the day when the people Aren't frightened anymore And everyone around the world is free On the day when humanity Has opened every door I'll be happier than you could ever be Than you could ever be There's a sad man walking the road today There's a sad man walking the road today A sad man
