Some people will always have
it, so
people live in poverty
is dead and gone.
Life is uncertain.
Let me hear you say,
yes! Death is final,
yes it is.
There'll be days of sunshine and laughter,
but don't forget you're gonna have to shed some tears.
It's the law of the land, my brother.
Whether you like it or you understand.
It's the law of the land.
Laws be by almighty man.
Live by the good book
if you're able.
You must lay your cards on top of the table.
When you gamble, you either win or lose.
In life,
everybody's gotta pay some dues.
Well, it's the law of the land.
Well, well.
Whether you like it or you understand.
You can't change it.
It's the law of the land.
Laws be by almighty man.
Laws be by
almighty man.
Peace of mind can't be found
until you find yourself.
Think about it.
You might not like
being who you are,
but you better start liking it.
But this sure can't be nobody else.
In
other words, I
can't be you.
Ain't no way that you can't be me.
Well, well.
That's how it is, my sisters and brother.
And that's the way the good Lord made it to be.
Oh,
it's the law of the land.
Well,
whether you like it or you understand.
Say, say, it's the law of the land.
Yeah.
Look here.
The course of a man's day is coming back.
For your own protection,
your doors you must lock.
What goes around
comes around.
And what goes up must come down.
It's the law of the land.
Well, well, well, well.
Whether you like it or you understand.
Everybody sing along with me.
It's the law of the land.
Well, well, well.
Laws be by almighty man.
