TEARDROPS OF BLOOD Richard Aberdeen from the Homeless In America CD mentioned abovve Leroy lives in a cardboard box Down by the mission bell Where saints refuse to go And the sinners wish him well Forced to carry his own cross While we drive nails in his coffin You might say it is routine It happens far to often A decorated soldier Veteran of the war Who would've thought that he would be Among the sick and poor? The preacher-man wags his head While the rich man turns away His mother looks on weeping Teardrops of blood are falling Jesus sang a Samaritan song Down by the mission bell Where saints refused to go And the sinners wished him well Forced to carry his own cross While we drove nails in his coffin You might say it was routine It happened far to often A decorated soldier Veteran of the war Who would've thought that he would be Among the sick and poor? The preacher-man wagged his head While the rich man turned away His mother looked on weeping Teardrops of blood were falling Leroy lives in a cardboard box Down by the mission bell Where saints refuse to go And the sinners wish him well Seems no one down here gives a damn Though the stone's been rolled away Our father looks on weeping Teardrops of blood are falling
