lyrics

BAG PEOPLE

I´m like a snail:
this is my house,
this is my home.
Nobody, no rat no mouse
are here welcome.
From place to place
I move at a snails pace.

I´m like a snail
with a snail shell home.
It may be a baby stroller,
it may be a shopping trolley,
I catch what i can,
it even may be a toboggan,
with what I come.

I´m like a snail.
“Bag people” we are called,
because with bag and baggage
we are in the street.
But we are with our own home
and on our own feet
we move along all night and day
restless until the end is told.

I´ m like a snail.
I might be woman or a man,
African- American,
Chinaman, an Indian,
white or black, yellow or red,
I carry on with my snail home
but one big step and it is flat.
(Lyrics by Alfred Gulden)
