Just The Way It Goes

Down to my last seed, down to my last penny

Things seems more sacred when your pockets are empty

Took what I could from this land of plenty

Call me lazy but girl I ain't your enemy

Drive to succeed... Man, my car ain't got those gears

While you’re running circles I'll be out on free drinkin’ beers

I'm addicted to the small things

Cause expectations ain't worth the burden that they bring

And I don't wanna cause no riot

I'm just looking for some peace of mind

They say you’re damned if you do

And if you don't, you're still damned

But everything works out in time

That’s just the way it goes

That’s just the way it goes

In the bottom of a bottle there’s an answer to all of this

That’s just the way it goes

In the back of my mind there’s a reason but I just can’t remember it

Down to the last minute, down to the last second

Still in the race but I lost my direction

Drinks inclusive with the price of admission

Stop the tape there’s a ringer in the session

Spin the dial tune out the conditions

Listen I just don’t exist in your brain dead existence

And I don't wanna cause no riot, riot, riot

And I don't wanna cause no riot

I'm just looking for some peace of mind

That’s just the way it goes

That’s just the way it goes

In the bottom of a bottle there’s an answer to all of this

That’s just the way it goes

In the back of my mind there’s a reason, but I just can’t remember it

That’s just the way it goes

That’s just the way it goes
