Honest Man Songtext
von Lowell George

Somebody can you tell me about the difference
One man to another how come some people are always runin′ down
Everybody around them

His excuse is he thing we're fools we are useless.
He don′t know how to live and let live
Or how to give when he takes
All he makes is a lot of heartbreak
Is that the way of an honest man doin' the best he can
Is that the way of an honest man doin' the best he can


I got some good friends you know their satisfied most the time
With a little with a little peace of mind.
They don′t need no alibis no excuses no tellin′ lies
You know they know how to live and let live
How to give, when they take
And never make a lot of heartbreak
Honest man, doin' best he can
That′s the way of an honest man doin' the best he can

Honest man, doin′ the best he can

It don't take a vision or a religion
Understanding is just not that demanding
No
And then you don′t need no alibis, no excuses no tellin' lies
And then you know how to live and let live
How to give when you take
Never make a lot of heartbreak
Cause that's the way of an honest man
Doin′ the best he can
That′s the way of an honest man
Doin' the best he can
