There's a man   Sits outside in front of Grazi's Cafe   Dirty clothes, a bedroll and a smile      He rubs his hands together   And says "Mister can you spare me some change?"   I see him down on my luck for a while      I'm a soul survivor   Yeah, I sleep under the freeway signs   And I'm here to remind you   Be a friend of mine, oh, be a friend of mine      There's a famous picture   From the war in Vietnam   A little girl running on a road burned and screaming      Thirty years later   She met the man who called down the Napalm   But did he lie, when he begged for forgiveness      She said, I'm a soul survivor   Yeah, God's grace has set me free   And I'm a living reminder   So think about me, oh, can you think about me      I know the world outside   It ain't no bed of roses   We need each others hand   To take us through the night      Oh, yeah, yeah      Soul survivor   Yeah, everybody needs a helping hand   We're all here to remind us, yeah   The white man, the black man, the red man, all men      Soul survivor   Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah   I'm a soul survivor   Be a friend of mine, oh, be a friend of mine   Yeah, I'm soul survivor   Be a friend of mine
