RICH MAN'S SHOES
(J Christie)

1st verse
When the dice are loaded, and the chips are down
When your wheels stop rolling, and you're losing ground
When the bridge is burning, and you're sinking slowly
When the tide is turning, you can feel so lonely

Chorus
You can close your eyes, you can drift away
To another time and a different place
You can change your mind, you can change your style
Wear a different face, grow a new profile
If you wanna walk out in a rich man's shoes,
Then you better sign on for a rich man's blues
Better not fade out any time you lose
If you wanna walk out in a rich man's shoes

2nd verse
You could use some money, when you're down on skid row
You could use some shelter when you feel that wind blow
When the fire's burning in the witch's eye
When the rain keeps pouring from the misty sky


Chorus
