You Get What You Deserve Lyrics

Try to understand what I'm going through
Don't blame me for what folks will do
For some of us it's not a good time
But, you're going to get choosed to
And you'd better resign yourself

You get what you deserve
You ought to find out what it's worth
And you've gotta have a lotta nerve.

You just do what pleases you
Go on and sigh out every move
You gonna get place in a scene
All God's orphans get a face in the dream now

Too bad such a drag
So much pain went down the drain
And a lot of us ain't got many friends
