lyrics

Every day, underneath Manhattan bridge
I sip coffee that's eighty cents
Every day, on a bench under the bridge
I dream of the world beyond the fence

Every day, I sit by the river
Look around there's a fishman on the reel
And I see across a flash of silver
It's my hope nobody can steal

Oh oh oh...
Oh oh oh...

So my freedom is in, in the song I sing by day
So my freedom is in the sound I play
Oh every day I'm less rich in my pocket
But you know I'm richer, you know I'm richer in my mind

Every day, I choose to be a runner
How far away is the place I am to get?
Sometimes I wanna sleep in woman's breasts
But I stay on the track that's for the best for you and me

Every day, I dream of Ethiopia
Every night, music comes to me
Every day, I can dream of Andulcia
Every night...

So my freedom is on, on the train I take by day
So my freedom is on the rusty rails
Oh every day I'm less rich in my pocket
But you know I'm richer, you know I'm richer in my mind

(Solo)

Oh we are living in New York City
Where things don't seem to get any pretty
Through the noise and the crowd I walk on
Till I meet people on their salty feet

Oh every day I'm less rich in my pocket
But you know I'm richer, you know I'm richer in my mind
Oh every day I'm less rich in my pocket
But you know I'm richer, you know I'm richer in my mind
In my mind, in my mind...
