The Way Life Goes

Bobby comes from the wrong side of the tracks
Cool as he was you know he just couldn't seem to relax
A couple of reds and a bottle of wine
Smoking a joint now he's doing fine
Bobby comes from the wrong side of the tracks

Peggy's as good as a Catholic girl can be
Bob looked at her said "God made you just for me"
She lit up a smoke said "I disagree
A U and I don't make a W-E"
To everyone's surprise it was true love eternally

[Chorus]
Ain't that the way life goes
Funny how nobody knows
Hand the fate never shows
Ain't that the way life goes

George and Eileen were the All star American dream
Queen of the prom, captain of the football team
Nobody foresaw anything so obscene
But they were in for a shock no crystal ball could've seen
Georgie broke her heart, became an All star American queen

[Chorus]
Ain't that the way life goes
Funny how nobody knows
Hand the fate never shows
Ain't that the way life goes

[Bridge]
Nobody can be a fortune-teller you see
The cover never reveals the book entirely
Dancing off of the beat landing so perfectly
Out of tune is the note that ends in harmony

[Chorus]
Ain't that the way life goes
Funny how nobody knows
Hand the fate never shows
Ain't that the way life...

Ain't that the way life goes
Funny how nobody knows
Hand the fate never shows
Ain't that the way life goes

Ain't that the way life...
Ain't that the way life goes
Funny how nobody knows
Hand the fate never shows
Ain't that the way life goes
