Big Tom & The Mainliners Lyrics
"The Same Way You Came In"

Oh we're going out the same way we came in
Don't matter who you know or where you've been
Makes no difference who you are
Skid Row Joe or superstar
You're going out the same way you came in

We are born into this world without a thing
And we leave it just as naked as we came
You may drive a Coup de Ville, own a mansion on a hill
Don't mean nothing when Saint Peter calls your name

Oh you're going out the same way you came in
Someone will notify your next of kin
Some will weep and some will moan
Some will spit upon your stone
But you're going out the same way you came in

Oh, they lay you out in all your fancy clothes
And they'll figure out just who and what you own
Then the lawyers line their nest
And your kinfolk gets the rest
Oh, you can't take it with you when you go

Oh you're going out the same way you came in
Makes no difference who you know or where you've been
Makes no difference who you are
Skid Row Joe or superstar
You're going out the same way you came in

Oh you're going out the same way you came in
Makes no difference who you know or where you've been
Makes no difference who you are
Skid Row Joe or superstar
You're going out the same way you came in
Yeah, you're going out the same way you came in
