Okay, Just Drop One In
Okay, Just Drop One In
Okay, just drop one in his cup,
or maybe two or more,
in trembling hands that he holds up,
while begging eyes implore.
Wrapped up in tattered coat, his home,
wherever he may end;
cast out by fate and all alone...
this cup, his only friend.
Okay, just drop one in his cup,
a bill or batch of change,
to see him smile when he looks up...
as fear with hope exchange.
To see eyes sparkle and well up...
perhaps today he eats.
Okay, just drop one in his cup;
revive this heart that beats.
