Everybody wants an easy ride on the
merry go round that we call life
Take a drive on cruise control then
you wake to find its a winding road
I had my dreams in view when the
money ran out and the engine blew
Hung my tears out to dry then my
dreams fell out of that clear blue sky
And I I was walkin' the clouds
Feelin' so safe and sound
Somethin' else knocks my down

CHOURS:
Well oh that's the way it is, you
gotta roll with the punches
That's the way it goes, you gotta
bend when the wind blows
You live you learn, you crash and
burn its hit or miss
Thats the way it is

One fine day you wake up, completely, hopelessly fallin in love
He's jsut what you're lookin for
the only problem is that the
man's not sure
Another guy'll give you
everything only probem is
you dont feel a thing
Well I know from experience nothing's ever gonna make perfect sense
Oh, one day you get what you want
But it's not want you think
Then get what you need

REPEAT CHOURS

Yeah, they say your soul is growin'
but
Sometimes I feel like throwin somethin'

LAST CHORUS
And that's the way it is, you
gotta roll with the punches
That's the way it goes, you gotta
bend when the wind blows
That's the way it is, you gotta roll with the punches
That's the way it goes, you gotta
ben when the wind blows
You live,you learn, you crash and
That's the way it is

That's the way it is
That's the way it is
That's the way it goes
That's the way it goes
