What It´s Like
Canciones de Everlast

We've all seen a man at the liquor store beggin' for your changeThe hair on his face is dirty, dread-locked, and full of mangeHe asks a man for what he could spare, with shame in his eyes"Get a job you fucking slob," is all he repliesGod 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:
Then you really might know what it's like...Then you really might know what it's like...Then you really might know what it's like...Then you really might know what it's like...
Mary got pregnant from a kid named Tom that said he was in loveHe said, "Don't worry about a thing, baby dollI'm the man you've been dreaming of."But 3 months later he say he won't date her or return her callsAnd she swear, "God damn, if I find that man I'm cuttin' off his balls."And then she heads for the clinic andshe gets some static walking through the doorThey call her a killer, and they call her a sinnerand they call her a whoreGod 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 begI've seen a good man sinI've seen a tough man cryI've seen a loser winAnd a sad man grinI heard an honest man lieI've seen the good side of badAnd the downside of upAnd everything betweenI licked the silver spoonDrank from the golden cupAnd smoked the finest greenI stroked the fattest dimes at least a couple of times before i broke their heartYou know where it ends, yo, it usually depends on where you start
I knew this kid named Max who used to get fat stacks out on the corner with drugsHe liked to hang out late he liked to get shit-faced and keep the pace with thugsUntil late one night there was a big old fight and Max lost his headHe pulled out his chrome .45, talked some shit, and wound up deadNow his wife and his kids are caught in the midst of all of this painYou know it comes that way at least that's what they say when you play the gameGod 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
Then you really might know what it's like...Then you really might know what it's like...Then you really might know what it's like...to have to lose
