Homeless Child.

Ben Harper : The two first verses came to me immediately, the last came later all at once. The sound of Homeless child is the result of the combinaison of a 58 tweed Fender Champ and a microphone put in front of the instrument. We recorded and went over again the whole in a small speaker to have a mono sound which recalls the old 78 of blues. Usually each sound is recorded distinctly then mixed. It's a stoke of inspiration of the lucky Plunier.

With guitar-pro : Homeless child (4 Ko)

Lyrics :

Nowhere here
to call my home
no one ear
to call my own
all that's left
is for me to roam
somebody please
help me hang on

Homeless Child
homeless child
what is left
for the homeless child

There is no night
and there is no day
it is all
one shade to gray
some will pass
and some will stay
is this the end
or just one more day

Homeless Child
homeless child
what is left
for the homeless child

Sure not much
but it's my best
I just need
some place to rest
if you could just
let me be your guest
I won't burden you
for very long

Homeless Child
homeless child
what is left
for the homeless child
