Текст песни

Two packs of cigarettes a day,
The strongest whiskey
Kentucky can make.
That's a recipe to put a vagabond
On his hands and knees.
I watched it all up close,
I knew him more than most.
I saw a side of him he never showed.
Full of sympathy for a world that
Wouldn't let him be
That's the man he was,
Have you heard enough?

What a shame, what a shame,
To judge a life that you can't change.
The choir sings, the church bells ring.
So, won't you give this man his wings?
What a shame to have to beg you to
See we're not all the same.
What a shame

There's a hard life for every silver spoon,
There's a touch of grey for every shade of blue.
That's the way that I see life.
If there was nothing wrong,
Then there'd be nothing right.
And for this working man they say could
Barely stand.
There's gotta be a better place to land.
Some kind of remedy for a world that
Wouldn't let him be
That's the man he was,
Have you heard enough?

What a shame, what a shame,
To judge a life that you can't change.
The choir sings, the church bells ring.
So, won't you give this man his wings?
What a shame to have to beg you to
See we're not all the same.
What a shame

God forgive the hands that laid you down.
They never knew how, but your broken
Heart can break the sound
And change the season.
Now the leaves are falling faster,
Happily ever after.
You gave me hope through your endeavors
And now you will live forever.

What a shame, what a shame,
To judge a life that you can't change.
The choir sings, the church bells ring.
So, won't you give this man his wings?
What a shame to have to beg you to
See we're not all the same.
What a shame, what a shame
'Cause we're not all the same
What a shame, what a shame
'Cause we're not all the same
