lyrics

We walked by the mission and we watched the men smoke,
some read the papers and others told jokes
about the places they'd been, all their old friends
and everybody crossed when that ambulance came again

Everybody moved from the shady side of the street
to the sunnier side of the street.
Everybody moved.

They'll do anything to get out of the heat,
they will risk their lives on the rocks at the sea,
they will stand in the street in a lightening storm
but in a couple months, they'll be crossing to get warm

as they move from the shady side of the street
to the sunnier side of the street
as they move

to where we do anything, we'll go out in the cold,
we risk our lives on those icy roads
we'll help out a neighbor in snow storm
but in a couple months, we won't even say "good morning"

as we move from the shady side of the street
to the sunnier side of the street
as we move

We'll walk by the mission and the men will still smoke
they will still read the papers, they will still tell jokes
about the places they're going, all their new friends
and everybody will cross as the ambulance comes again

Everybody moves from the shady side of the street
to the sunnier side of the street
Everybody moves
