Way It Goes

I'm not the best at most the things I try and do.

I make a mess out of most things well yes its true.

But I still climb to the top, before I get to ride it down.

I don't raise a deal about the things that I have done and found.

Cause I'm, well, just a man, but a man got a lot to lose.

Got a lot of choice to make with not a whole lot of choice to chose.

Do I accept my fate or do I go and refuse,

I got to force to state and I got to state the trues.

And that's the problem, there ain't no right or wrong,

One's about getting ahead and one's about getting gone.

(Chorus)

I know we're gonna make it but we'll take it slow,

You never know what you're gonna get,

You say you're live your life like Russian roulette

And I know, I know.

I know you cant live your life on the run.

My dady told me listen my son, do what I say don't do what I've done.

But I ain't calling for no outs or immunities.

I got my problems, but I'm solving them when I'm in the sea.

Cause "the finer things are nothing", said my future wife.

So I told her, "everything else must cost me more than my life."

But I know, that's just the way it goes.

And I know, the way it goes is the way it goes.

And I know, if I don't make it, there'll be a good reason

But if I'm stuck by next year I'm just getting up and I'm leaving

Cause, that's the problem, there ain't no right or wrong.

I said, one's about getting ahead the other's about getting gone.

It's a choice if you stop,

But it ain't one if there's no use.

Gotta climb to the very very top,

If you want the best of the views, its true.

(Chorus)
