In The Pocket Of My Pants

I Pay My Toll To The Sidewalk Troll

My Entrance Fee To Street Romance

Oh Streetcorner Ambassador

This City Treats You Well

Supplies The Finest Newsprint Sheets

The Penthouse Suite, Park Bench Hotel



Conferring With The Delegates

Around Imported Port

Important Issues Of The Day

Say "Unity Will Buy A Quart"

Oh Streetcorner Ambassador

Keeps Highbrow Company

They Drink The Finest Of Liqueur

At The A Train Embassy



And It's Toss Into The Old Tin Cup

A Shiny Copper Penny

Sing Along That Old Refrain

"Can You Spare A Little Change, Man?

Can You Spare Just A Little Change?"



The Cop Said "Move On Or I'm Gonna

Take You To The Shelter"

She Beat A Quick Retreat That's How

He Knew That He Had Helped Her

Oh Streetcorner Ambassador

It Seems So Clear To Me

The More You Are Ignored

It's Called Diplomatic Immunity



Now If You Find My Money

On The Street You Let It Be

Consider It My Joint Account

With Someone Who Really Needs It

Oh Streetcorner Ambassador

Back From Vietnam Or Up From The South

Those Patronizing Liberals

Took The Words Out Of Your Mouth



And It's Toss Into The Old Tin Cup

A Shiny Copper Penny

Sing Along That Old Refrain

"Can You Spare A Little Change, Man?

Can You Spare Just A Little Change
