[00:00.00]The Way It Is - Bruce Hornsby & the Range
[00:49.95]Standing in line marking time
[00:52.05]Waiting for the welfare dime
[00:55.22]'Cause they can't buy a job
[00:58.51]The man in the silk suit hurries by
[01:00.61]As he catches the poor ladies' eyes
[01:03.69]Just for fun he says"Get a job"
[01:09.89]That's just the way it is
[01:14.06]Some things will never change
[01:18.56]That's just the way it is
[01:22.59]Ah but don't you believe them
[01:32.82]Said hey little boy you can't go where the others go
[01:38.29]'Cause you don't look like they do
[01:41.47]Said hey old man how can you stand
[01:44.02]To think that way did you really think about it
[01:47.73]Before you made the rules
[01:49.89]He said"Son that's just the way it is
[01:57.22]Some things will never change
[02:01.74]That's just the way it is
[02:05.77]Ah but don't you believe them"
[03:02.40]That's just the way it is
[03:06.78]That's just the way it is
[03:08.22]Well they passed a law in '64
[03:10.29]To give those who ain't got a little more
[03:13.53]But it only goes so far
[03:16.60]Because the law don't change another's mind
[03:18.96]When all it sees at the hiring time
[03:22.09]Is the line on the color bar no no no
[03:28.22]That's just the way it is
[03:32.33]Some things will never change
[03:36.90]That's just the way it is
[03:40.08]That's just the way it is it is it is it is
