That's the way it goes
I've been waiting for the perfect woman
To come and rescue me
Well there she is and I can almost touch her
Oh, but I just can't speak
Whoo yeah

Chorus
Sometimes that's just the way that it goes
Some you win, some you lose
Sometimes that's just the way that it goes
There ain't much you can do
I've been dreamin' 'bout a '50 shevy
Dry and red of gleaming chrome
Saved up my money and bought some beat up wagon
Ooh but now I'm walking home
Don't you know

(chorus)
They say that life's the luck to the draw
Well I ain't had no cards
I only know that nothing's for sure, and the only luck's hard

(solo)
Cars and girls on an endless highway, the all american dream
Girl I'd better try, yeah try and find it, and it ain't what it seems
Don't you know

(chorus) (repeats
