Bài hát What It's Like Báo Lỗi

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 killer and they call her a sinner 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...
