Lyrics
Man Of The World
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Man of the world
You are aiming straight for the top
Man of the world
Soon you'll be the cream of the crop
With your well paid job
And your brand new car
But you don't realize
How poor you are
Can you make the grade
Man of the world
The price must be paid
You cannot pay
To live as a king on this earth
It's too late for you
For such must be given by birth
But there's still a chance
If you realize
This gift from God
Is life's highest price
Man of the world
Let him open your eyes
Man of the world
What about you
Do you dare try to make it alone
You've got no choice
No price you could pay could atone
You must sacrifice all
Put your life on the line
As he died you must die
So you'll live as he lives
Do you want to survive
Man of this world
You'd better make up your mind
Man of this world
There's not much time
