Lyrics
What a world we live in, boy
With men who would be kings
Imagine they can conquer life
By owning everything
Not me and you
Now, ain’t that true
Tons of buried treasure, boy
Who the hell needs cash
Some stale bread, a hunk of meat
Here,sitting in this trash
Enough for two
Now, ain’t that true
Some dogs got it better
Some men got it worse
Some drink for the pleasure
Some, to quench the thirst
They took me in to dry me out
When I was near to dead
Said, Jesus gonna save my soul
But you saved me instead
Me and you together, boy
And heroes never die
But now and then I swear I see
A sunset in your eyes
We’re overdue
Now, ain’t that true
I don't recall when I found you or maybe you found me
But souls like us need comfort and a little company
Yeah,
Some dogs got it better
Some men got it worse
Some drink for the pleasure
Some, to quench the thirst
They took me in to dry me out
When I was near to dead
Said, Jesus gonna save my soul
But you saved me instead
When my time is gone, old friend
May the good Lord see you through
But heaven knows, if you go first
I don’t know what I’ll do
This world can be cruel
Now ain’t that true
I'm glad I got you
Now, ain't that true
