lyrics

YOU USED TO BE A BIG SHOT MAN
WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU?
YOU HAD A BRAND NEW MUSTANG
BACK IN HIGH SCHOOL
ONCE SO LOUD AND PROUD
NOW YOU BARELY SPEAK AT ALL
JUNIOR COLLEGE FOOTBALL STAR
PASSED OUT AT THE BAR

YOU USED TO BE A BIG SHOT
NOW YOU HAVE SEVEN KIDS
WITH FIVE DIFFERENT WOMEN
IN THREE DIFFERENT CITIES
YOUR LAVISH LIFESTYLE WAS A FRONT
AND YOU FIGURED IT OUT
YOU FEEL LIFE PUNCHED YOU IN THE GUT
AND ITS SOMEONE ELSE'S FAULT

ALL THE BIG DREAMS AND PLANS YOU HAD
HAVE ALL BEEN PUT ASIDE
'CAUSE CHILD SUPPORT IS A BITCH
AND THE RENT IS TOO DAMN HIGH
DESPITE ALL THE SHIT YOU PULLED
I HOPE THAT YOU FOUND PEACE
AND AS EVERYBODY KNOWS
THINGS AREN'T WHAT THEY SEEM

AS EVERY BIG SHOT LEARNS
NOTHING LASTS TOO LONG
AND WHO CAN REALLY SAY
WHAT IS RIGHT AND WHAT IS WRONG?
FROM ONE BIG SHOT TO ANOTHER
JUST TRY TO BE A FATHER
NEVERMIND WORRYING ABOUT THE THINGS THAT YOU AIN'T GOT
JUST LEAVE THEM TO THE BIG SHOT
