Underneath the overpass, the sergeant plays trombone
In a castle made of trash, that's what he calls home
Shopping carts and old umbrellas in a geodesic dome
Mmm-mmm home sweet home
Underneath the overpass, the sergeant combs his hair
Up above the cars roll past, they pay their tolls and fares
He says, "Come to my living room," and he pulls out an old lawn chair
Mmm-mmm, "I got somethin to share."
He says, "I can't tell you nothin you won't find out on your own.
The years, they show you some things that the days could never know.
It takes a lot of livin in a place to make it home.
Mmm-mmm, so make it home."
Underneath the overpass, the sergeant throws a bone
to a dog that makes him laugh, he named him Al Capone
Coke bottle windchimes, and a beat up radio
Yeah, mmm-hmmm home sweet home
Underneath the overpass, the sergeant downs his drink
Crawls beneath his colored dome, pets his dog and thinks
He lies there while the raindrops slowly carry him to sleep
Mmm-mmm him to sleep
