See her on the street, selling her body just to make ends meet Every day's the same, sad story She prays, but no one answers back A soul who never had a chance Don't you laugh at her misfortune Everyone can take a fall If you were walking in those footsteps Wouldn't laugh at all What if it was you, standing on the street? What if it was you, without enough to eat? What if it was you, and nothing left to lose? What if it was you, standing in those shoes? What if it was you, all alone out there? Didn't have a choice, didn't have a prayer What if it was you, down on your luck? What if it was you, and no one gave a ***? He's there every day Asking, hey mister, can you spare some change? Why don't you get a job? It's all they say You live with no such thing as pride You're fighting just to stay alive Don't you laugh at his misfortunes Anyone can take his place If you were walking in those footsteps Would you feel the same? What if it was you, standing on the street? What if it was you, without enough to eat? What if it was you, and nothing left to lose? What if it was you, standing in those shoes? What if it was you, all alone out there? Didn't have a choice, didn't have a prayer What if it was you, down on your luck? What if it was you, and no one gave a ***? What if every day you woke up without knowing? How you gonna eat? Where you gonna sleep? What if hard times hit you? Would you fade so quick to judge a lover? Judge a brother? Or would you feel how it would be in those shoes? Don't you laugh at her misfortune Everyone can take a fall If you were walking in those footsteps Wouldn't laugh at all What if it was you, standing on the street? What if it was you, without enough to eat? What if it was you, and nothing left to lose? What if it was you, standing in those shoes? What if it was you, all alone out there? Didn't have a choice, didn't have a prayer What if it was you, down on your luck? What if it was you, and no one gave a ***? What if it was you, standing on the street? What if it was you, without enough to eat? What if it was you, and nothing left to lose? What if it was you, standing in those shoes? What if it was you, all alone out there? Didn't have a choice, didn't have a prayer What if it was you, down on your luck? What if it was you, and no one gave a ***? What if it was you, standing on the street?
