מילים לשיר The Way It Is – Bruce Hornsby

Standing in line marking time
Waiting for the welfare dime
'Cause they can't buy a job
As he catches the poor old ladies' eyes The man in the silk suit hurries by
Just for fun he says "Get a job"
That's just the way it is Some things will never change
That's just the way it is
Where the others go
But don't you believe them
'Cause you don't look like they do
They say hey little boy you can't go
Said hey old man how can you stand
To think that way
Before you made the rules
Did you really think about it
He said, Son That's just the way it is
That's just the way it is
Some things will never change
But don't you believe them
Well they passed a law in '64 But it only goes so far
To give those who ain't got a little more
Is the line on the color bar
Because the law another's mind
When all it sees at the hiring time
That's just the way it is
Some things will never change
That's just the way it is But don't you believe them.
