IF I FELL IN A LAKE
WOULD YOU DIVE IN
OR WOULD YOU
STAND THERE AND GAPE
AND IF I DROWNED
WOULD YOU JUMP
OR WOULD YOU LET
THE WATER BURST
IN MY LUNGS, WELL
A STRANGER IN THE STREET
MAYBE THE ONLY ONE
ON HIS KNEES
WHEN YOU'RE
LAYIN' BY THE ROADSIDE
WAITIN' FOR A FRIEND TO COME
GOT MY HOPES
GOT MY DOUBTS
A GUT REACTION
SAYS I'VE GOT TO FIND OUT
WHO'S AGAINST
WHO TO TRUST
OOH, YOU NEVER KNOW
BUT I MIGHT GET KILLED
IN THE RUSH BUT
A STRANGER ON THE STREET
MAYBE THE ONLY ONE
ON HIS KNEES
WHEN YOU'RE
LAYIN' BY THE ROADSIDE
WAITIN' FOR A FRIEND TO COME
YOU LAUGH
YOU THINK IT'S A JOKE
JUST STAND THERE GRINNIN'
BUT WILL YOU BE
THERE AT THE POST
WHEN I AIN'T WINNIN'
HEY, BLACK OR WHITE
GOOD AND BAD
HOW MANY TIMES HAVE
I DONE THIS AND DONE THAT
EVERY LIFE, EVERYONE
IF I KNEW THAT I'D PROBABLY
TAKE OUT A GUN BUT
IT'S MOTHER NATURE'S LAW
TO GET YOU COMIN'
BACK FOR MORE
INSTEAD OF
LAYIN' BY THE ROADSIDE
WAITIN' FOR A FRIEND TO COME
YOU LAUGH
YOU THINK IT'S A JOKE
JUST STAND THERE GRINNIN'
BUT WILL YOU BE
THERE AT THE POST
WHEN I AIN'T WINNIN'
HEY, BLACK OR WHITE
GOOD AND BAD
HOW MANY TIMES HAVE
I DONE THIS AND DONE THAT
EVERY LIFE, EVERYONE
IF I KNEW THAT I'D PROBABLY
TAKE OUT A GUN BUT
IT'S MOTHER NATURE'S LAW
TO GET YOU COMIN'
BACK FOR MORE
INSTEAD OF
LAYIN' BY THE ROADSIDE
WAITIN' FOR THE END TO COME
LAYIN' BY THE ROADSIDE
WAITIN' FOR A FRIEND TO COME
