A friend of a friend needs a favor

No questions asked, there's not much more to say

Me and the wife, we need the money

We've got four kids all hungry, one on the way

Slip

I never went to college

I don't have a degree

Let's say I went to night school

I learned all I know on the streets

I wasn't born a rich man

I ain't got no pedigree

The sweat

It's all the same, only the names will change

Everyday it seems we're wasting away

Another place where the faces are so cold

I'd drive

Joey comes from a sacred part of town

Where sometimes you talk so tough

That your feet don't touch the ground

And the sidewalk soldiers sing the midnite blues

While

Some year old kid sits on his porch, just half-past noon

Trying to figure out just what he's doing

Why he had to grow

Dressed up for a big date

Like Halloween day but it was Fourth of July now

A car crash with a suitcase

You been robbed

You been used

You been crucified and

You been abused

You been

This world don't give you nothing it can't take away

Everybody holding on to something

Nobody

So you want to be a cowboy

Well you know it's more that just a ride

Guess you got to know the real thing

If you want to know the other side

Ain't

(feat. LeAnn Rimes)

It might be hard to be lovers

But its harder to be friends

Baby pull down the covers

Its time you let me in

Maybe
