There`s not a street that you can walk
You got to watch just who you`re talkin` to
They`re out to get ya can`t turn your back on a smilin` face
Next thing ya know there ain`t no trace of you
And this I betchasome people lose and some folks win
It`s a matter of what they do
Are you man enoughbig and bad enough
Are you gonna let `em shoot ya down
When the evil flies and your brother cries
Are you gonna be around
Someone needs a friend just around the bend
Don`t ya think you should be there
Are you man enoughwhen the goin`s rough
Is it in your heart to care
There`s no pretending it goes away
With every step that you takeyou pay your dues
And I ain`t lyin`
You got to struggle to see the light
How someone`s lookin` to steal your right to choose
And don`t stop tryin`
It`s like a jungle outside the door
and it`s keepin` you so confused
Are you man enoughbig and bad enough
Are you gonna let `em shoot ya down
When the evil flies and your brother cries
Are you gonna be around
Gotta keep your eye on the passers by
Better watch your step
`Cause ya never know where the knife will go
and they ain`t missed yet
The strong survive they stay alive
They always cool
But that they never teach you in school
Are you man enoughbig and bad enough
Are you gonna let `em shoot ya down
When the evil flies and your brother cries
Are you gonna be around
Someone needs a friend just around the bend
Don`t ya think you should be there
Are you man enoughwhen the goin` get`s rough
Is it in your heart to care
Are you man enoughbig and bad enough
Are you big & bad enough
Are you gonna let `em shoot ya down
When the evil flies and your brother cries
Are you gonna be around
