What If It Was You? Lyrics - Between The Sheets - 411

Seen her on the streets 

Selling her body just to make ends meet 

Everyday is the same sad story 

She prays but no one answers back 

Her soul never had a chance 

Don't you laugh at her misfortune 

Anyone can take a fall 

If you were walking in those footsteps 

You wouldn't laugh at all 

[Chorus] 

What if it was you standing on the street 

What if it was you without enough to eat 

What if it was you with nothing else to lose 

What if it was you standing in those shoes 

What if it was you all alone out there 

Didn't have a choice, didn't a prayer 

What if it was you down on your luck 

What if it was you and no one gave a fuck 

He's there everyday 

Asking hey Mister can you spare some change 

Why don't you get a job 

Is all they say 

You live with no such thing as pride 

You're fighting just to stay alive 

Don't you laugh as his misfortune 

Anyone could take his place 

If you were walking in those footsteps 

Would you feel the same 

[Repeat Chorus] 

What if everyday you woke up without knowin' how you gon' eat 

Where you gon' sleep 

What if hard times hit you 

Woudl you be so quick to judge another 

Judge your brother 

Or would you feel how it would be in their shoes 

Don't you laugh at her misfortune 

Anyone can take a fall 

If you were walking in those footsteps 

You wouldn't laugh at all 

[Repeat Chorus]
