We've all seen the man at the liquor store begging for your change The hair on his face is dirty, dreadlocked and full of mange He asks a man for what he could spare with shame in his eyes "Get a job, you fucking slob" is all he replies God forbid you ever had to walk a mile in his shoes 'Cause then you really might know what it's like to sing the blues.
CHORUS: Yeah, then you really might know what it's like (4x)
Mary got pregnant from a kid named Tom who said he was in love He said "Don't worry 'bout a thing, Baby Doll, I'm the man you've been dreaming of" But three months later he say he won't date her or return her calls And she swear, "God damn, if I find that man, I'm cuttin' off his balls" And she heads for the clinic and she gets some static walkin' through the door They call her a sinner and they call her a killer and they call her a whore But God forbid you ever had to walk a mile in her shoes 'Cause then you really might know what it's like to have to choose
CHORUS
I've seen a rich man beg I've seen a good man sin I've seen a tough man cry I've seen a loser win And a sad man grin I heard an honest man lie I've seen the good side of bad And the down side of up And everything between I licked the silver spoon drank from the golden cup Smoked the finest green I stroked the baddest dimes 'least a couple of times 'fore I broke they heart You know where it ends, yo It usually depends on where you start
I knew this kid named Max, he used to get fat stacks out on the corner with drugs He liked to hang out late, he liked to get shit faced and keep pace with thugs 'Til late one night there was a big gun fight and Max lost his head Pulled out his chrome .45, talked some shit, and wound up dead Now his wife and his kids are caught in the midst of all of this pain You know it crumbles that way, at least that's what they say when you play the game But God forbid you ever had to wake up to hear the news 'Cause then you really might know what it's like to have to lose
Yeah, then you really might know what it's like (3x) To have to lose...
