It's Who You Know

The quarterback down at the school makes all the rules

'cause he's super cool

And everybody wants to be just like him

There's a little girl in his homeroom class

Sits in the back 'cause she thinks she's tat

Lookiin' for a corner she can hide in

In life there ain't too many level playin' fields

And it don't seem fair but here's the deal

Brother here's the deal

You can walk on water, you can walk on the moon

You can walk through memphis wearin' blue suede shoes

When the walkin' is over, at the end of the road

It ain't what you done son, it's who you know

Yeah it's who you know

Meet the man who owns it all

That's him there on the lobby wall

Don't he look like he's been carved from granite

His hands are soft, his heart is hard

And he only smokes the best cigars

And you call him sir.'cause he's earned it, damn it

There's a little old lady cleanin' up after him at night

And she prays someday that he'll see the light

Man i think she's got it right

At the end of the road

It's who you know

It ain't who you are son, it's who you know.
