Intro. AVs1:
Like a Aleaf Dcaught Ain the wind he drifted a while
With no Dpurpose Aor direction to his life
He tried to Dget hiEmself together
AAnd pacify his Dmind
And forAget aboEut the thiAngs he left behind.
Ch1:
A cEryin' woman Ahe left standing in his door
With a F#mtwo month Eold baby in Aher arms
His Elittle blacAk book he left torn upon the floor
God only F#mknows he never Dmeant to do Eher wrong.
Vs2:
A careless weekend on the other side of town
Has torn the king of Oak Street's Castle down
And all week long he's tried to phone her
But she won't let him explain
Now Sunday morning finds him walking in the rain.
Ch2:
He sits now in a phone booth and he prays
That she'll forgive him
And she'll believe he's changed his ways
With shaking hands he deposits his last dime
And he's still praying that she won't hang up this time.
Vs3:
Then the sweetest voice he's ever heard says “hello”
Breakfast's almost ready baby, come on home
I've thought the whole thing over
And I think I understand
That the king of Oak Street is just an ordinary man.
I've Dthought tEhe whole thing over
AAnd I tDhink I understand
That the Aking of Oak Street is just an Eordinary Aman.
