California tramp  
 
 
couplet: 
A man is livin on the streets, on the streets of California 
Sitting in the rain, tired, and sick of his life 
No family no friends, no family no love 
He?s lying on a couch in the park it?s winter and it?s cold..cold..COLD 
 
Chorus: 
 He most survive, he most survive, he most survive on the streets 
he most survive on the streets 
 
couplet: 
He walks down the streets and see a lottery ticket, he thinks this is my lucky day 
From his last money, he buys a news paper he looks in it and he won! 
Back by his old friends they asking for some help, some help for their problems 
He sais no you can help yourself, I have new friends to. 
 
Chorus: 
 He most survive, he most survive, he most survive on the streets 
he most survive on the streets 
 
Couplet: 
He can?t hold the money so he buy some dope, he doesn?t think about the results. 
He become, a poor man again, he friends dont talk anymore. 
That was the end of the california tramp. Goodbye goodbye goodbye 
 
Chorus: 
He Fails, He fails, 
He fails in his mission 
And maybe he comes in heaven 3x
