Everlast Follow

With a soft underbelly and a hardened heart
They say you gotta be tough if you ain't that smart
I'm sitting here alone, waiting for my phone to ring

Run out of time, run outta hope
The boys on the corner never run out of dope
I keep myself high so I can keep doing my thing

They say stupid is as stupid does
And everything's sane as it ever was
I drink myself blind tryna find a new song to sing

Time is money, money talks
Bartender, pour me one more whiskey on the rocks
While I try to understand why every man wants to be king

Heavy is the head that wears the crown
Everybody kicks you when you're down
Laughing now, later you can frown
Heavy is the head that wears the crown

With a sweet disposition and an iron will
A couple of nice cars and a house on a 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 thing when nobody knows ya
And your home's just a house
When you're sitting there alone on your own

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 changing every time the story is gets told

Some pray for money and some pray for brain
And some are just praying for relief from the pain
Some of us will buy just about anything weak in your soul

Heavy is the head that wears the crown
Everybody kicks you when you're down
Laughing now, later you can frown
Heavy is the head that wears the crown

I'm a mean old dog, got a big old gun
I'm a proud new papa, I'm a only son
I'm a beggar, I'm a thief, I'm a liar and a cheater too

I've been around the block , I've been around the sun
I've been up, I've been down, I've been over and done
I've seen the bottom of the pile and the mountain top
Either will do

Heavy is the head that wears the crown
Everybody kicks you when you're down
Laughing now, later you can frown
Heavy is the head that wears the crown
