No shoes, no shirt   If I give you my last dollar is that going to make it worse   And if you need a change is spare change what you need?   And why is everybody so hungry on this single street?   I didn't catch her trip   I didn't catch her name   I always see her on that strip   In the middle of the day   Trying to turn a trick   Just trying to make her way   It's not a matter of what you give   But more a matter of what you take      Oh the things I see   Day to day   Down on Hastings & Main   Oh the things I see   Day to day   On Hastings & Main      No shoes, no shirt   If I give you my last dollar is that going to make it worse   And if you need a change is spare change what you need?   And why is everybody so hungry on this single street?   I didn't catch her trip   I didn't catch her name   I always see her on that strip   In the middle of the day   Trying to turn a trick   Just trying to make her way   It's not a matter of what you give   But more a matter of what you take      Oh the things I see   Day to day   Down on Hastings & Main   Oh the things I see   Day to day   On Hastings & Main   On Hastings & Main
