"Hobo", sebuah lagu yang dinyanyikan oleh Billy Bob Thornton, mengungkapkan kisah pedih seorang individu yang pernah menyaksikan kemurahan hati ibunya terhadap tunawisma ("Hobos"). Namun, seiring berlalunya waktu, sang individu kini telah menjadi tunawisma itu sendiri, menghadapi nasib serupa dengan mereka yang dulu dibantu oleh ibunya. Dengan lirik yang berulang dan menyayat hati, lagu ini mengeksplorasi tema kesedihan, ketakutan, dan hilangnya rasa aman, menyampaikan penggambaran yang menyentuh tentang sifat transisi dan kerentanan manusia.
Hobo Lyrics
Billy Bob Thornton
Mama used to feed the Hobo's
Now I'm a Hobo
I'm a Hobo
Mama used to feed 'em scraps and things
Now I eat scraps and things
I eat scraps and things
Mama used to feed 'em scraps and things
Now I eat scraps and things
I eat scraps and things
(Solo)
Mama said California was gonna fall in the ocean
Gonna fall in the ocean
Mama said California was gonna fall in the ocean
Now I'm in the ocean
I'm in the ocean
When I was a child I loved the people
Now I'm afraid of the people
I'm afraid of the people
When I was a child I loved the people
Now I'm afraid of the people
I'm afraid of the people
Mama used to feed the Hobos
Now I'm a Hobo
I'm a Hobo
Mama used to feed the Hobos
Now where is Mama
Where is Mama
Now I'm a Hobo
I'm a Hobo
Mama used to feed 'em scraps and things
Now I eat scraps and things
I eat scraps and things
Mama used to feed 'em scraps and things
Now I eat scraps and things
I eat scraps and things
(Solo)
Mama said California was gonna fall in the ocean
Gonna fall in the ocean
Mama said California was gonna fall in the ocean
Now I'm in the ocean
I'm in the ocean
When I was a child I loved the people
Now I'm afraid of the people
I'm afraid of the people
When I was a child I loved the people
Now I'm afraid of the people
I'm afraid of the people
Mama used to feed the Hobos
Now I'm a Hobo
I'm a Hobo
Mama used to feed the Hobos
Now where is Mama
Where is Mama
