Hippie Boy - The Flying Burrito Brothers[00:00:00]

I was walking down the street the other day[00:00:27]

And a sight came before my eyes[00:00:30]

It was a little hippie boy I must have been twice his size[00:00:33]

His appearance typified his strange breed[00:00:40]

Gaudy clothes long stringy hair hanging down[00:00:44]

I'd seen perhaps a thousand in my early trips to town[00:00:49]

As he walked beside me on down the block[00:00:56]

I noticed no unpleasing smell[00:01:00]

He might have been on the w**d or even LSD[00:01:03]

But if he was I couldn't tell[00:01:07]

So we walked together that way through this neighborhood[00:01:11]

Finally he turned around to me[00:01:16]

And he he said "Friend you know we're a million miles apart[00:01:17]

But you know something we can enjoy the sunshine and the weather[00:01:26]

So why don't we put our differences aside[00:01:32]

And just talk to each other"[00:01:36]

You see this box beneath my arm[00:01:40]

To you it's plain it has no charm[00:01:43]

But to someone dearest to my heart[00:01:47]

This box has played a tragic part[00:01:49]

This little one can't tell you himself about his life and how he died[00:01:59]

But if anyone else could speak for him I guess I'm qualified[00:02:05]

This boy was in Chicago he didn't know why he was there[00:02:12]

He was with his family and friends and he didn't really care[00:02:16]

You might have been one of those[00:02:24]

Who saw the struggle there on your television screen[00:02:25]

The tragic thing is so much else happened[00:02:31]

That no one else could have seen[00:02:34]

A stranger handed this boy a dollar to do a simple chore[00:02:43]

To carry a package to a nearby hotel[00:02:48]

And when he returned he'd get two more[00:02:51]

But when he came back he sort of lost his way[00:02:56]

Walking through the crowd[00:02:59]

One of them things you ask yourself how the Lord allowed[00:03:01]

But when he was found he was like he is now[00:03:10]

Dreaming sweet and still[00:03:13]

And in his little hand was a crumpled dollar bill[00:03:18]

Now you can take that dollar[00:03:28]

Get four cents on it compound it quarterly at any downtown bank[00:03:30]

So they can back some hot new tank or atom bomb[00:03:39]

What I'm going to tell you now you can stay or you can leave[00:03:48]

You kind of listened to my story so far but just one more thing[00:03:53]

It's the same for any hippie bum or hillbilly out on the street[00:03:59]

Just remember this little boy and never carry more than you can eat[00:04:06]

Now could you help us sing this song please[00:04:14]

There will be peace in the valley for him now we pray[00:04:21]

I will think of the little hippie boy that way that way[00:04:32]
