You won't see him on your flat screen, no reality TV show
Homeless Joe, and he starts to sing

You can find him down on the corner where everybody knows
Homeless Joe
Homeless Joe
Homeless Joe

He's got a lot of soul, an angel without wings

Homeless Joe, when he plays that thing
He just kicks it down the street with his bottleneck guitar
Now, homeless Joe ain't got no car
Homeless Joe
Now some say, homeless Joe's just an old vile
Homeless Joe, ohh
Homeless Joe
Homeless Joe, when he plays that thing
And homeless Joe don't pay no rent
Homeless Joe and he starts to sing
He just sleeps in the park in a cardboard tent

Homeless Joe, ohh
He's got a lot of soul, an angel without wings
Homeless Joe

He's got a lot of soul, an angel without wings
Homeless Joe, and he starts to sing
Homeless Joe, when he plays that thing
He can pick and sing you anything from 'Muddy Waters' to 'B.B. King'
He ain't got no compact disc, no music video
In his beat up old guitar case is where the people toss their dough
