With a soft underbelly
|
And a hardened heart
|
They say you've got to be tough
|
If you ain't that smart
|
I'm sitting here alone
|
Waiting for my phone to ring
|
|
Run out of time
|
Run out of hope
|
The boys on the corner never run out of dope
|
I keep myself high
|
So I can keep doing my thing
|
|
They say "Stupid is as stupid does
|
And everything's the same as it ever was"
|
I drink myself blind
|
Trying to find a new song to sing
|
|
Time is money,
|
And money talks
|
Bartender, pour me one more whiskey on the rocks
|
While i try to understand
|
Why every man wants to be king
|
|
Heavy is the head that wears the crown
|
(wears the crown)
|
Everybody kicks you when you're down
|
(when you're down)
|
Laugh for now; later you can frown
|
(you can frown)
|
Heavy is the head that wears the crown
|
(wears the crown)
|
|
With a sweet disposition
|
And an iron will
|
A couple nice cars
|
And a house on a hill
|
my back account's full
|
But my soul is still empty and cold
|
All the money and the clothes
|
And the sold out shows
|
Don't mean a damn thing when nobody knows you
|
And your home is just a house
|
When you're sitting there alone and you're old
|
|
I heard love is a game
|
I heard love is a rock
|
And I heard love is a house on a dead end block
|
But the ending keeps changing every time that the story gets told
|
|
Some pray for money
|
Some pray for rain
|
And some are just praying for relief from the pain
|
But some of us will buy
|
Just about anything we can be sold
|
|
Heavy is the head that wears the crown
|
(wears the crown)
|
Everybody kicks you when you're down
|
(when you're down)
|
Laugh for now; later you can frown
|
(you can frown)
|
Heavy is the head that wears the crown
|
(wears the crown)
|
|
I'm a mean old dog
|
Got a big old gun
|
I'm a proud new papa
|
I'm an only son
|
I'm a beggar
|
I'm a thief
|
I'm a liar and a cheater too
|
|
I've been around the block
|
I've been around the sun
|
I've been up
|
I've been down
|
I've been over and done
|
I've seen the bottom of the pile
|
And the mountain top
|
Either will do
|
|
Heavy is the head that wears the crown
|
(wears the crown)
|
Everybody kicks you when you're down
|
(when you're down)
|
Laugh for now; later you can frown
|
(you can frown)
|
Heavy is the head that wears the crown
|
(wears the crown)
|
