    Story Behind the Song
    This song was created as I was
    driving to work one day. I saw
    all the homeless people sleeping
    underneath the higway bridges
    (mainly I-45 in downtown
    Dallas). I felt that these
    people need our help, no matter
    hat the problem is.

    Lyrics
    Living under 45
    Words and Music by R.Nelson
    Ain't got no bread in my pocket
    And got no family
    Just a cardboard box
    That just washed down the street
    Oh life is so hard
    Living under 45
    ------------------------------------------
    Sitting on the corner
    Holding up my sign
    "Will work for food"
    Honey it ain't no lie
    Oh life is so hard
    Living under 45
    -------------------------------------------
    Oh can you spare some change
    So I can get something to eat
    You say no way
    With 200 dollar shoe on your feet
    Oh life is so hard
    Living under 45
    -----------------------------------------
    Oh I see your face
    Can't bear to look at me
    You don't know what it's like
    Living on the Streets
    Oh life is so hard
    Living under 45
    ---------------------------------------
    Buried in an unmarked grave
    No heirs to my throne
    If I saw an ounce of kindness
    At least something would carry on
    Life was so hard
    Living under 45
