With a soft underbelly and a hardened heart They say you gotta be tough if you ain't that smart I'm sittin here alone, waitin for my phone to ring Run of out time, run out of hope The boys on the corner never run out of dope I keep myself high, so I can keep doin my thang They say - stupid is as stupid does~! And everything's the same as it ever was I drink myself blind tryin to find a new song to sing Time is money and money talks Bartender pour me one more whiskey on the rocks While I try to understand, why every man wants to be king
[Chorus] Heavy is the head that wears the crown Everybody, kicks you when you're down Laugh for now, later you can frown Heavy is the head that wears, the , crown
[ Everlast ] Keep a sweet disposition and an iron will A couple nice cars and a house on the hill My bank account's full but my soul's still empty and cold All the money and the clothes and the sold out shows don't mean a damn thang when nobody knows ya and your home's just a house when you sittin there alone in your robe I heard - love is a game, I heard love is a rock I heard love is a house on a dead-end block But the ending keeps changin every time that the story gets told Some pray for money, some pray for rain And some are just prayin for relief from the pain And some of us will buy just 'bout anything we can be sold
[Chorus]
[ Everlast ] I'm a mean old dog, got a big old gun I'm a proud new poppa, I'm a only son I'm a begger, I'm a thief, I'm a liar and a cheater too I been around the block, I been around the sun I been up I been down I been over and done I've seen the bottom of the pile and the mountaintop - either'll do
