That's the Way Life Goes

I know a gal got a lot to lose She's a pretty nice lady but she's kinda confused Got muscles in her head ain't never been used Thinks she owns half of this town Starts drinking heavy gets a big red nose And she beats her old man with her pantyhose And takes him out and buys him new clothes That's the way that the world goes 'round That's the way that the world goes 'round One minute you're up and the next you're down It's a half an inch of water and you think you're gonna drown That's the way that the world goes 'round Well, I was sitting in the tub just a counting my toes When the radiator broke and the water froze Got stuck in the ice without any clothes Naked as the eyes of a clown I was crying ice cubes hoping that I'd croak Then the sun came through the window and the ice all broke I said son of a gun man that's just a joke And that's the way the world goes round That's the way that the world goes 'round One minute you're up and the next you're down Got a half an inch of water and you think you're gonna drown That's the way that the world goes 'round Well, that's the way that the world goes 'round One minute you're up and the next you're down Got a half an inch of water and you think you're gonna drown That's the way that the world goes 'round That's the way that the world goes 'round That's the way that the world goes 'round
