It’s Who You Know

Lyrics

[Verse 1] The quarterback down at the school Makes all the rules 'cause he's super cool And everybody wants to be just like him There's a little girl in his homeroom class Sits in the back 'cause she thinks she's fat Looking for a corner she can hide in In life there ain't too many level playing fields And it doesn't seem fair, but here's the deal Brother, here's the deal [Chorus] You can walk on water You can walk on the moon You can walk through Memphis Wearing blue suede shoes When the walking is over At the end of the road It ain't what you've done, son It's who you know Yeah, it's who you know [Verse 2] Meet the man who owns it all That's him there on the lobby wall Don't he look like he's been carved from granite His hands are soft, his heart is hard And he only smokes the best cigars And you'll call him Sir 'Cause he's earned it, damn it There's a little old lady Cleaning up after him at night And she prays someday that he'll see the light Man I think she's got it right [Chorus] You can walk on water You can walk on the moon You can walk through Memphis Wearing blue suede shoes When the walking is over At the end of the road It ain't what you've done, son It's who you know Yeah yeah, it's who you know [Bridge] At the end of the road It's who you know [Chorus] You can walk on water (Yes, it's who you know) You can walk on the moon (He's the man with the plan) You can walk through Memphis (He's the one that knows) Wearing blue suede shoes (We serve an awesome God) When the walking is over (In Him we will move and have our bed) At the end of the road (He's got the way already made) It ain't what you've done, son (We just don't know about it) It ain't what you've done, son (Proverbs 23:12 says "Apply your heart to instruction and your ear to words of knowledge" and then walk therein) It's who you know (No man knows the day brother when he shall return, Matthew 19:24 says "It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom" You've got to [?] your own foundation [?] He's the prophet to help in the time of trouble, yes He is, oh yes He is He's the one to know)
