Honest Man Songtext

von Matt Andersen

It's so hard gettin' by these days as an honest man
I'm just trying to do my part, just want to lend a hand

When i need it, i can't get no help
Everybody's just serving themselves
Nobody's got time for an honest man

All the movers and the shakers and the powers that be
They turn their backs on each other, they turn their backs on me

Now i just want to know where i stand
Am i a mountain or a grain of sand
Has anybody got time for an honest man

What do i have to do to get your attention
I have so much say, why don't you just listen

It's just so hard out here for an honest man
I keep tryin' to do all i can

I keep my head up along the way
Thinkin' maybe, just maybe someday

Somebody's gonna have time for an honest man
