You Don't Know What It's Like Lyrics

[Spoken] (continued from "Session 6")

You don't know what it was like, blah blah blah blah.



See you don't know what it's like to be a man in the world

and be scared to lose everything

See you don't know what its like to build a life from nothing

and be scared to lose everything



I bet that's not what you said back then

And don't sing your blues to me

You have no right



By the time I was old enough to run

Momma couldn't move and Dad was gone

So she sat me in a room alone to watch TV

By the time I went to school I had no friends

I didn't even know how to play with kids

They would all run around, and I would just sit alone

And do you know what its like to cry yourself to sleep tonight at the age of six,

and seven

and eight

and nine

and ten

and eleven

and twelve
