Now Susie's old man says,
|
"I will get a job if I can,
|
But I'm I proud man,
|
and there's no one who's willing to pay for what I am."
|
"But the rent has to be paid,
|
and day after day we go deeper in debt.
|
The child has a school and
|
she canĄ¯t stick to rules that she does not have".
|
Chorus:
|
She says, "I canĄ¯t walk on water to will,
|
IĄ¯m sinkin' in the real world.
|
I can't walk on water to will.
|
Everybody sells themselves,
|
why don't you do the same?"
|
|
Her calm is broken,
|
and sheĄ¯s tired of toeinĄ¯ the line for you.
|
You have your conviction,
|
but does that prevent you from listeninĄ¯ too?
|
You say you love her,
|
but she canĄ¯t love someone she does not respect.
|
The psychology is,
|
you want somethin' bad, you have to go get.
|
|
Chorus
|
|
He never thought that she would give up and move on,
|
For he tried so hard to convince her that his love was strong.
|
