My Man

Tell me the truth, how do you feel? Like youre rollin so fast that youre spinnin your wheels? Dont feel too bad, youre not all along Were all tryin to get along With evrybody else tryn to go their way Youre bound to get tripped, and what can you say? Just go along til they turn out the lights Theres nothin we can do to fight it No mans got it made till hes far beyond the pain And we who must remain go on living just the same I once knew a man, very talented guy Hes sing for the people and people would cry They knew that his song came from deep down inside You could hear it in his voice and see it in his eyes And so he traveled along, touch your heart, then be gone Like a flower, he bloomed till that old hickory wind Called him home My mans got it made Hes gone far beyond the pain And we who must remain go on living just the same We who must remain go on laughing just the same
