How We Live (Man With A Sign)

V1
His little girl is wearin' hand me downs
He's only workin' half shifts now
And every morning at his corner light
Stands a man with a sign

V2
She's got a good job with her law degree
She's always worked hard, nothin' ever came for free
And every morning at her corner light
Stands a man with a sign

Chorus
How many hearts are shoved on down the line
Don't have the money, brother, or I just don't have the time
Mother Theresa, well she walked in different shoes
But choices are choices; we all pick and choose
And we all have to say goodbye...
Knowin' how we lived, is how we die

V3
I'm not a preacher, but somehow I believe
There's so much more that what it is we think we see
Love is the lesson; Life's only gold to mine
And somewhere in the light...stands a man with a sign

Chorus
How many hearts are shoved on down the line
Don't have the money, brother, or I just don't have the time
Mother Theresa, well she walked in different shoes
But choices are choices; we all pick and choose
And we all have to say goodbye...
Knowin' how we lived, is how we die

Instrumental

Chorus
How many hearts are shoved on down the line
Don't have the money, brother, or I just don't have the time
Mother Theresa, well she walked in different shoes
But choices are choices; we all pick and choose
And we all have to say goodbye...
Knowin' how we lived, is how we die...
