Miss one and you'll fall into this well
That's how they grew up thinkin' and now he thinks it's all his fault
He's gonna leave 'em all a little somethin'
So while there's still time the daddy that they nickel and dime
But what he needs can't be bought, it has to be found
See life's full of changes
The rich man owns everything from miles around
If you're gonna get there you're gonna have to walk
Called wantin' and havin' it all
And you know you've gotta do it step by step
Miss one and you'll fall into this well
There's a poor man livin' on a budget at the bottom of the hill
The kids don't call, they're waitin' for the man to die
Well, only the rich man knows see
But first you'll have to crawl
Miss one and you'll fall into this well
Goin' over his will 'cause he's ill
Well, there ain't nothin' you can do about it
And you know you've gotta do it step by step
Poor man has everything that the rich man don't
There's this thing called wantin' and havin' it all
He's got a house he calls home
To take a little weight off his shoulders
And wantin' right now what you only see in your dreams
But first you'll have to crawl
Called wantin' and havin' it all
If you're gonna get there you're gonna have to walk
His rich kids think that they're better 'cause they're better off
There's this thing called wantin' and havin' it all
I know you don't like it
He's got love in his life and his heart
About how he's gonna pay the bills
To the man that brought wood in the winter
Is gonna make 'em learn to take a turn and stand in line
That's where a lot of his money goes
And you know you've gotta do it step by step
With a wife and two kids and a worried mind
And think it's the strangest thing you've ever seen
There's this thing called wantin' and havin' it all
If you're gonna get there you're gonna have to walk
But they're gonna be real surprised
But first you'll have to crawl
