What It’s Like

I’ve seen a rich man beg, I’ve seen a good man sin, I’ve 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, n’ smoked the finest green.
I stroked the baddest dimes at least a couple of times before I broke they heart.
You know where it ends….It usually depends on where ya start.

God forbid you ever had to walk a mile in his shoes.
‘Cause then you really might know what it’s like to sing the blues…

Prized Possession: Gift from the traveling group of homeless story-tellers we shared a picnic dinner with beside the interstate one evening. Have you walked a mile in someone else’s shoes lately..?
