《The Way It Is》歌词

[00:00:01] The Way It Is - Bruce Hornsby

[00:00:50] Standing in line marking time

[00:00:52] Waiting for the welfare dime

[00:00:55] 'Cause they can't buy a job

[00:00:59] The man in the silk suit hurries by

[00:01:01] As he catches the poor old ladies' eyes

[00:01:04] Just for fun he says "Get a job"

[00:01:10] That's just the way it is

[00:01:14] Some things will never change

[00:01:19] That's just the way it is

[00:01:23] But don't you believe them

[00:01:33] They say hey little boy you can't go

[00:01:35] Where the others go

[00:01:38] 'Cause you don't look like they do

[00:01:41] Said hey old man how can you stand

[00:01:44] To think that way

[00:01:46] Did you really think about it

[00:01:48] Before you made the rules

[00:01:50] He said Son

[00:01:53] That's just the way it is

[00:01:57] Some things will never change

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

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

[00:03:08] Well they passed a law in '64

[00:03:10] To give those who ain't got a little more

[00:03:14] But it only goes so far

[00:03:17] Because the law don't change another's mind

[00:03:19] When all it sees at the hiring time

[00:03:22] Is the line on the color bar

[00:03:28] That's just the way it is

[00:03:32] Some things will never change

[00:03:37] That's just the way it is

[00:03:40] Thats just the way it is it is it is it is
