Jaywalkers of the World
Josh Joplin
Department store windows
Dress in their best clothes
And the streets are snowy and wet
She holds out her handbag
And bullfights with cabs
But no one has picked her up yet
And so she leaves
And she leaves
And hope springs eternally brief
Jaywalkers of the world united
Cross the traffic of life divided
By those who go
And those who've gone
Jaywalkers of the world walk on
Crowds in the crosswalk
Push on to the next block
The holes they leave behind are filled fast
Step to the curb
And say a parting word
And lead your people past
You're not alone
You're not alone
We all wanna get back home
Jaywalkers of the world united
Cross the traffic of life divided
By those who go
And those who've gone
Jaywalkers of the world walk on
I look both ways
Before I cross
My fingers and pray
Love is never lost
Against the light
We join the cause
Jaywalkers of the world united
Cross the traffic of life divided
By those who go
And those who've gone
Jaywalkers of the world (And those who've gone)
Jaywalkers of the world (And those who've gone)
Jaywalkers of the world (And those who've gone)
Jaywalkers of the world (And those who've gone)
Jaywalkers of the world (And those who've gone)
Jaywalkers of the world (And those who've gone)
Jaywalkers of the world
