What It's Like (radio edit) - Everlast

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.
