Mary got pregnant from a kid named Tom that said he was in love
|
|
He said, "Don't worry about 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, "Goddamn, if I find that man I'm cuttin' off his b@##s"
|
|
And 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

God forbid you ever had to walk a mile in her shoes

Dm |
Fmaj7 |
| I've seen a rich man beg | I've seen a good man | sin
|
| C |
I've seen a tough man | cry
|
| Dm |
Dm |
Fmaj7 |
| I've seen a loser win | And a sad man | grin
|
| C |
I heard an honest | man lie
|
| Dm |
Dm |
Fmaj7 |
| I've seen the good side of bad | And the downside of | up
|

| I licked the silver spoon | Drank from the golden | cup
|
| C |
And smoked the finest | green
|
| Dm |
Dm |
Fmaj7 |
| I stroked the fattest | dimes at least a couple of | times
|
| C |
Before I broke their | heart
|
| Dm |
Dm |
Fmaj7 |
| You know where it | ends, yo', it usually | depends
|
|
I knew this kid named Max
|
|
Who used to get fat stacks out on the corner with drugs
|
|
He liked to hang out late
|
|
He liked to get s@#$-faced and keep the pace with thugs
|
|
Until late one night there was a big old fight and Max lost his head
|
|
He pulled out his chrome .45, talked some s@#$ and wound up dead
|
|
Now his wife and his kids are caught in the midst of all of this pain
|
|
You know it comes that way
|
|
At least that's what they say when you play the game
|
|
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
|
|
|: Then you really might know what it's like :| * 2!
|
| C |
Dm |
Then you really might know what it's like | to have to | lose
