《The Bum》是美國樂隊Orleans演唱的歌曲，收錄於1976年發行的專輯《Waking & Dreaming》中，另外儲存有現場版收錄於《Still The One (Live) - 30th Anniversary》專輯。作品以邊緣群體的生存狀態為切入點，通過流浪者第一人稱敘事展開。
歌詞以口語化風格勾勒主人公輟學、打工、流浪的經歷，反覆強化“B-U-M”的身份符號，運用“bum bum sha do be bowery”等擬聲詞串聯副歌節奏，在戲謔自嘲中消解苦難敘事。文本通過加油站打工、搭火車漂泊等具象場景，呈現游離於社會規範外的生存圖景，折射出對主流價值觀的叛逆態度。

歌曲歌詞
Well I pump a lotta gas
And I shot a lotta speed
Well I bummed a lotta dimes
But they ain't nothin' that I need
'Cause I'm a bum
Well I'm a bum bum bum bum
Well I'm a bum bum bum bum
B-U-M bum bum sha do be bowery
Well I jump a lotta trains
And I seen a lotta towns
And well I felt a lotta pain
And I've been known to fall right down
I'm a bum
Oh well I'm a bum bum bum bum
Well I'm a bum bum bum bum
B-U-M bum bum sha do be bowery
Bum bum sha do be bowery
Well I flunked out of school
And I shot a lotta pool
Well some people they think I'm disgusting
But I know that I'm cool
Oh well I'm a bum bum bum bum
Well I'm a bum bum bum bum
B-U-M bum bum sha do be bowery
