He's a drifter he's a loner
He's an urban soldier
He's front line infantry, in a war with poverty
He takes shelter in the alley
On the concrete steps
Where he's covered with his jacket, his shoes under his head
'Cause supplies are always thin
At the local soup kitchen

'Cause a halfway house, just ain't, a halfway home
And a man cannot survive on handouts alone
He deserves a second chance, to build a life with his own hands
And a halfway house just ain't a halfway home
And a halfway house just ain't a halfway home

We have passed him on the roadside
We've read his sign
It says I will work for food, but we don't look in his eyes
And we don't dare pull out our wallet
'Cause a man like that
He might be desperate enough, to snatch it from our hands
'Cause Supplies are always thin
At the local soup kitchen

And a halfway house, just ain't, a halfway home
And a man cannot survive on handouts alone
He deserves a second chance, to build a life with his own hands
And a halfway house just ain't a halfway home
And a halfway house just ain't a halfway home

He's a beggar on his feet, he ain't an addict on his knees
He's a product of a war, he was sent to overseas
He's a prayer before dinner that makes you thankful for your food
With a haircut and a shave he's interchangeable with you

'Cause a halfway house, just ain't, a halfway home
And a man cannot survive on handouts alone
He deserves a second chance, to build a life with his own hands
And a halfway house just ain't a halfway home
And a halfway house just ain't a halfway home
