Well, when you think you got problems you don't really need, They're maybe not as bad as they seem. 'Cause in a world full of misery, with hatred and greed, Your problems are another man's dream. Now when your own little world seems to be in a state And you think you may be losin' your mind, Just remember the people who only can wait For happiness they never will find. Chorus: And you know, problems come and problems go. This is something you should know: There's people in the world today Who don't have nothin' but hell to pay. Now when your life of success has got you livin' in doubt And you're feeling like there's nowhere to turn, Just remember the world that you don't know about And all the lessons that you can learn Chorus: 'Cause you know, problems come and problems go. This is something you should know: There's people in the world today Who don't have nothin' but hell to pay. Background: Some people today Got hell to pay. That's what they got ... And tomorrow Or yesterday, They got hell to pay. All right ... Chorus: 'Cause you know, problems come and problems go. This is something you should know: There's people in the world today Who don't have nothin' but hell to pay. Well, when you think you got problems you don't really need, They're maybe not as bad as they seem. 'Cause in a world full of misery, from hatred and greed, Your problems are another man's dream. Chorus: And you know, problems come and problems go. This is something you should know: There's people in the world today Who don't have nothin' but hell to pay.
