That`s The Way The World Goes `round Lyrics

That`s The Way The World Goes `round lyrics

I know a guy 

that's got a lot to lose 

he's a pretty nice guy 

but he's kind of confused 

he's got muscles in his head 

that ain't never been used 

thinks he own half of this town 



starts drinking heavy 

gets a big red nose 

beats his old lady 

with a rubber hose 

then he takes her out to dinner 

and buys her new clothes 

that's the way that the world goes 'round. 



That's the way that the world goes 'round 

you're up one day 

and the next you're down 

it's half an inch of water 

and you think you're gonna drown 

that's the way that the world goes 'round. 



I was sitting in the bathtub 

counting my toes 

when the radiator broke 

water all froze 

I got stuck in the ice 

without my clothes 

naked as the eyes of a clown 



I was crying ice cubes 

hoping I'd croak 

when the sun come through the window 

the ice all broke 

I stood up and laughed 

thought it was a joke 

that's the way that the world goes 'round
