Willard - Willard lyrics

Willard, he's a loner Living by the railway Living by the tracks beside his home Willard, he's a loner If you're going his way Say hello, he ain't got no one to call his own Soldiers of gla** Standing by the trash Willard's coloured bottles in a line Soldiers of gla** It's funny you should ask But they're the only friends he has to pa** the time But they're the only friends he has to pa** the time And his Mamma knows that he was once a child Mamma, she was the first one to hear his cry And my Mamma knows that I was once a child Could it be we're all just Willard in disguise? Could it be we're all just Willard in disguise? I hear they're tearing down All the buildings in his town The house where Willard Jefferson has stayed But they can't tear him down No he will always be around 'Cause he's as hard as all that old black, river clay Yet his Mamma knows that he was once a child Mamma, she was the first one to hear his cry And my Mamma knows that I was once a child Could it be we're all just Willard in disguise? Could it be we're all just Willard in disguise? Willard, he's a loner Living by the railway Living by the tracks beside his home Willard, he's a loner If you're going his way Say hello, he ain't got no one to call his own
