What It's Like (In the Style of Everlast) (Tribute Version)
We've all seen the man at the liquor store beggin 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 replied.
God forbid you ever had to walk mile in his shoes
cos then you really might know what its like to sing the blues
then you really might know what its like (what its like)
then you really might know what its like (what its like)
then you really might know what its like (what its like)
then you really might know what its like (what its like)
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 dreamin of
but 3 months later he say he wont date her or return her calls
and she swear 'god damn if I find that man Im cutting off his balls'
then she heads for the clinic and she gets some static walking through the door
they call her a killer and they call her a sinner and they call her a whore
God forbid you ever had to walk mile in her shoes
then you really might know what its like to have to choose
then you really might know what its like (what its like)
then you really might know what its like (what its like)
then you really might know what its like (what its like)
then you really might know what its like (what its like)
I've seen a rich man beg, Iv seen a good man sin, Iv 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 and smoked the finest green
I Stroked the fattest dimes at least a couple of times before I broke their hearts
you know where it is yo, it usually depends on where you start.
God forbid you ever had to wake up to hear the news
then you really might know whats its like to have to lose
and then you really might know what its like (what its like)
then you really might know what its like (what its like)
then you really might know what its like (what its like)
to have to lose.
