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]
