Lyrics
There's a place Down on vagabond corner you can find what will put you at ease For your sunshine or snow it's where anything goes and the working girls do what you please Out the back door is destitute alley thats where the working man goes they say misery loves friends and there's never an end for the line at the door that wont close You wont need your watch there Because time is measured in years And the cover is cheap and it's all yours to keep for the price of a couple of beers. Theres this place called yesterday morning thats where your best memories stay the rents always dirt cheap and the only upkeep is keeping new memories away So if you hang out at vagabond corner with the devil he'll be your best friend and that happy lifestyle it will just take awhile till you realize it's only pretend

Your voice is perfect for this track...such a fantastic timbre and expression. The keys are amazing, as is the brass. This is absolutely awesome....a "must" for my station.

Chas! Now what is this. Welcome to the club! Tasteful piano, drums, brass, muted trumpet, bass. Hey, and then, a satchmo-style voice going: There's a place Down on vagabond corner you can find what will put you at ease For your sunshine or snow it's where anything goes and the working girls do what you please Okay, this is what I would expect in a musical environment like the one I hear, but some lines later you go: You wont need your watch there Because time is measured in years And the cover is cheap and it's all yours to keep for the price of a couple of beers. Man this in unique, it´s poetry. Because it fits the image AND opens the door wide! It´s philosophy and poem in one! GREEEAT words, simple at first glance but then deep as can be! So here´s vagabond corner, a place men go and would never say they do. A place they love to be and love to run away from: So if you hang out at vagabond corner with the devil he'll be your best friend an

This is sheer Chas genius at work. I love this song and nobody else is going to write this or deliver it in this way other than Chas. (well, Satchmo is not around, maybe he could have taken a stab at it).
