Seen her on the streets   Selling her body just to make ends meet   Everyday is the same sad story   She prays but no one answers back   Her soul never had a chance   Don't you laugh at her misfortune   Anyone can take a fall   If you were walking in those footsteps   You wouldn't laugh at all      [Chorus]   What if it was you standing on the street   What if it was you without enough to eat   What if it was you with nothing else to lose   What if it was you standing in those shoes   What if it was you all alone out there   Didn't have a choice, didn't a prayer   What if it was you down on your luck   What if it was you and no one gave a fuck      He's there everyday   Asking hey Mister can you spare some change   Why don't you get a job   Is all they say   You live with no such thing as pride   You're fighting just to stay alive   Don't you laugh as his misfortune   Anyone could take his place   If you were walking in those footsteps   Would you feel the same      [Repeat Chorus]      What if everyday you woke up without knowin' how you gon' eat   Where you gon' sleep   What if hard times hit you   Woudl you be so quick to judge another   Judge your brother   Or would you feel how it would be in their shoes   Don't you laugh at her misfortune   Anyone can take a fall   If you were walking in those footsteps   You wouldn't laugh at all      [Repeat Chorus]
