The Way Life Goes - Tom Keifer

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

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

Ain’t that the way life goes

Funny how nobody knows

Hand the fate never shows

Ain’t that the way life goes

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

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
