I got it bad, you don't know how bad I got it   You got it easy, you don't know when you've got it good   It's getting harder, just keeping life and soul together   I'm sick of fighting, even though I know I should      The cold is biting   Through each and every nerve and fiber   My broken spirit is frozen to the core   I don't want to be here no more      Wouldn't it be good to be in your shoes   Even if it was for just one day   And wouldn't it be good   If we could wish ourselves away      Wouldn't it be good to be on your side   The grass is always greener over there   And wouldn't it be good   If we could live without a care      You must be joking, you don't know a thing about it   You've got no problems, I'd stay right there if I were you   I got it harder, you couldn't dream how hard I got it   Stay out of my shoes if you know what's good for you      The heat is stifling   Burning me up from the inside   The sweat is coming through each and every pore      I don't want to be here no more   I don't want to be here no more   I don't want to be here no more      Wouldn't it be good to be in your shoes   Even if it was for just one day   And wouldn't it be good   If we could wish ourselves away      Wouldn't it be good to be on your side   The grass is always greener over there   And wouldn't it be good   If we could live without a care      I got it bad, you don't know how bad I got it   You got it easy, you don't know when you've got it good   It's getting harder, just keeping life and soul together   I'm sick of fighting, even though I know I should
