Is this the way
You want it to be 
Is this the way
It' s gonna be 
(x2)
Oh my God Oh my God 
What we gonna do 
In this world
In this world we live in 
(x2)
I see these men
Everyday at the corner
Of Queens and Commissioner
Begging for a dollar everyday
Begging for a dime everyday
Trying to make a living
Out there 
But it' s so hard 
(x2)
[Chorus:]
(x2)
Begging for a dollar
Begging for a dime
One of them
Swallowed his pride
His broken pride
And came to me he said
I quit, I give up
Life is a game
What are the rules
What did I do to deserve this
Begging for a dollar everyday
Begging for a dime everyday
Trying to make a living
Out there 
[Chorus]
