Lyrics: Howard drives a minivan with the cruise ships from Ft. Lauderdale And it's been that way since 1994 Does his business on a flip phone with the most obnoxious ringtone I didn't ask but I can tell he's from New York And he spoke proudly of his daughter and that this fall she'd be in college And that he always wished he'd gotten his degree You can tell he came from nothing, built a future out of hustling And somehow I'm the one you people pay to see
Oh isn't that just the way it goes You're dealt a good hand and you get celebrated Oh how am I the only one who knows I'm half the man of the men that drive me places
Danny showed up early fifteen minutes till five thirty Making sure that I'd be on my morning flight He said he'd love to fix computers, but that he can't until he's fluent So he spends his driving money taking class at night He wore a neatly ironed dress shirt and he helps his kids with homework And deep inside I couldn't help but ask myself Why that at night I'm up on stage, everybody knows my name While Danny's early picking up somebody else
Oh isn't that just the way it goes You're dealt a good hand and you get celebrated Oh how am I the only one who knows I'm half the man of the men that drive me places
And now everything's not given, I work hard to make my living But I'll give credit where I think credits due Maybe you got dealt a good hand Maybe you play it the best that you can But I don't know how far you'd walk without those cards In Howard and Danny's working shoes But that's just the way it goes You're dealt a good hand and you get celebrated Oh how am I the only one who knows I'm half the man of the men that drive me places
