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
