Every Man's Got A Mountain

It ain't easy, the road of life, it ain't easy It don't matter if you're black or white Nobody rides for free Well, believe me, life is a bitter-sweet journey And everybody that starts out in the cradle Still ends up in the grave Every man's got a mountain to climb He's got his own cross to bear Well, everyday is just another step you take On the road that takes you there On the road that takes you there Well, you might be a rich kid livin' on milk and honey Livin' off your daddy's money But money ain't everythin' Can't buy forgiveness, it sure can't buy salvation But it can numb your senses And tarnish your golden rings Every man's got a mountain to climb He's got his own cross to bear Well, everyday is just another step you take On the road that takes you there On the road that takes you there You can have nothin' and still have it all Be a blind man and still see You can be locked up in a cell But your heart can still be free (Your heart can still be free) It ain't easy, the road of life, it ain't easy Everybody's got a cross to bear On the road that takes you there (Oh, take me there) You can have nothin' and still have it all Be a blind man and still see You can be locked up in a cell But your heart can still be free (Your heart can still be free) It ain't easy, the road of life, it ain't easy Everybody's got a cross to bear On the road that takes you there Yeah, everybody's got a cross to bear On the road that takes you there
