Ways of Man

Since we first come out walking, looking for a way back in From this crazy world where we're blowing like leaves in the wind Just tryin' to make sense of this life any way that we can And foolin' ourselves with the ways of man We can do what we want to We can burn at both ends We can go half crazy Like we got no sense And it's a desperate feeling Just to hold it all in The weight of the world And the ways of man Well we thirst and we hunger and we love and we comfort now and then But we fight over money and power like water and bread Oh but it's simple the reason we're turning our backs on our friends 'Cause this brotherly love is such a hard thing to get through our heads We can do what we want to We can burn at both ends We can go half crazy Like we got no sense And it's a desperate feeling Just to hold it all in The weight of the world And the ways of man We can do what we want to We can burn at both ends We can go half crazy Like we got not no good sense And it's a desperate feeling Just to hold it all in The weight of the world And the ways of man The weight of the world And the ways of man --- Ways of Man - Old Crow Medicine Show
