Honest Man Lyrics

try to walk this earth an honest man,
but eveil waves at me its ugly hand.
The radar watches me from above, shouting down:
"I hope you make it on this earth."
Sometimes this world will leave you, lord,
kickin and a screamin, wonderin if you'll see the next day through.
But as for me I do believe that good luck comes from tryin,
so until I get mine ill work me the whole day through.

this song talks of the "evil" temptations that exists in our everyday lives, while a greater power above hopes we make the right decisions. the singer claims that, despite all of the "evil" he faces, he will try to be an honest man
