The Way It Is - Bruce Hornsby & the Range
Written：Bruce Hornsby
Standing in line marking time
Waiting for the welfare dime
Cause they can't buy a job
The man in the silk
Suit hurries by
As he catches
The poor ladies eyes
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
Ah but don't you believe them
Said hey little boy
You can't go where the others go
Cause you don't look like they do
Said hey old man how can you stand
To think that way
Did you really think about it
Before you made the rules
He said son
That's just the way it is
Some things will never change
That's just the way it is
Ah but don't you believe them
That's just the way it is
That's just the way it is
Well they passed a law in 64
To give those
Who ain't got a little more
But it only goes so far
Because the law
Don't change another's mind
When all it sees at the hiring time
Is the line on the color bar
No no no
That's just the way it is
Some things will never change
That's just the way it is
That's just the way it is
