Lyrics

Just Like Me

By: J Michael Price

I met a man downtown today he was holding up a sign
It read, I fought for your freedom brother can you spare a dime
Well I walked up with a dollar bill and the man stuck out his hand
He said if you've got five minutes to spare I've got a story for you friend

I used to have it all, everything a man could want
The last thing I've got left right now is this bible from my mom
Now I've heard a lot of things, beware of free advice
If you listen real close my friend, its the truth you can't deny

(Chorus)
Everything in life that don't come free can go away
Hold close to those you love the most, and tell them everyday
People lie, life ain't fair, beware the company you keep
Pray alot and listen to these words, or you'll end up just like me
just like me

(V2)
I used to have a home, I've lost a fortune or two
Only cared about my own, and ran away from the truth
Turned my back on my friends and ran around on my wife
In the end the only thing I chased was anything to make me high

(Chorus2)
Everything in life that don't come free can go away
Hold close to those you love the most, and tell them everyday
People lie, life ain't fair, beware the company you keep
Pray alot and listen to these words, or you'll end up just like me

(Bridge)
Me, I just can't believe I've wandered down this path
Live right the first time, cause you don't get a second chance

(Chorus3)
Everything in life that don't come free can go away
Hold close to those you love the most, and tell them everyday
People lie, life ain't fair, beware the company you keep
Pray alot and listen to these words, or you'll end up just like me
Just like me
