That’s the Way It Goes Lyrics

I've been do a lot of thinking, trying to understand

Why'd you roll with the devil, why'd you play that hand?

I've been wondering about the reasons for the life you chose

Guess the devil made you do it, and that's the way it goes

That's the way it goes

I've been doing a lot of thinking, trying to work it out

Did you ever think about it, was there ever any doubt?

I don't know if I should say this, but I guess someone should

People do a lot of talking, but it does no good

Yeah it does no good

That's the way it goes

That's just the way it goes

I've been doing a lot of thinking, about matters of the soul

I'm not talking about religion, just wonder who you were

All I know for certain, couldn't have done no more

Tried to meet you in the middle, but you closed the door

Yeah you closed the door

That's the way it goes

That's just the way it goes

I've been do a lot of thinking, trying to understand

Were you running from a demon, or just didn't give a damn?

I've been wondering about the reasons for the life you chose

Guess we'll never know the answers and that's the way it goes

That's the way it goes, that's just the way it goes

Everybody knows
