《The Way It Is(Live - 1998/99)》歌词

[00:07:02] Standing in line marking time--

[00:07:02] Waiting for the welfare dime

[00:07:02] 'Cause they can't buy a job

[00:07:02] The man in the silk suit hurries by

[00:07:02] As he catches the poor old ladies' eyes

[00:07:02] Just for fun he says "Get a job"

[00:07:02] That's just the way it is

[00:07:02] Some things will never change

[00:07:02] That's just the way it is

[00:07:02] But don't you believe them

[00:07:02] They say hey little boy you can't go

[00:07:02] Where the others go

[00:07:02] 'Cause you don't look like they do

[00:07:02] Said hey old man how can you stand

[00:07:02] To think that way

[00:07:02] Did you really think about it

[00:07:02] Before you made the rules

[00:07:02] He said, Son

[00:07:02] That's just the way it is

[00:07:02] Some things will never change

[00:07:02] That's just the way it is

[00:07:02] But don't you believe them

[00:07:02] Well they passed a law in '64

[00:07:02] To give those who ain't got a little more

[00:07:02] But it only goes so far

[00:07:02] Because the law don't change another's mind

[00:07:02] When all it sees at the hiring time

[00:07:02] Is the line on the color bar

[00:07:02] That's just the way it is

[00:07:02] Some things will never change

[00:07:02] That's just the way it is,

[00:07:02] thats just the way it is, it is,it is, it is
