No Sleep on the Street

3 a.m., there's rain coming down, not tears
A punk kid shaking from the cold, not fear
Lives on the street, needs a fix, needs it now
Survives by begging money and by stealing
He doesn't dream, his situation refuses sleep
But when he gets his fix, he'll ride that horse
And have the deepest kind of sleep, forever
