Lyrics The Roads of Life - Bobby Womack

The Roads of Life

Let me tell you about the road of life
The road of life is sometimes hard
No riders in your car
Odd things when day turn to dark
Bang, get slipped, tripped when as you wept
Drive a jam, book another test
Caught on to another express
Hear the words that I’m sayin' to you
Sometimes you bound to win, oh, sometimes you gotta lose
Ups and downs, just a part of life
You gonna do it wrong 'til you get it right, hey
I was telling you, I could hear
Road of life is long, and trick people out
Do whatever gets you off
Don’t be afraid to chance your thoughts
Some people, all they do is talk (talk, talk)
If you be good to life
People being good to you
You’ll enjoy every change, lord have mercy
It’ll put you through
Money, hey, is just a part of life
You can use it wrong 'til you learn to use it right
Fill up and start your wheels to turnin'
Every day you live, make sure you learn
To whoever this conversation may concern
Now you take friends, they come down to a few
Your best friend might just be you
You’ll never know until you start to lose
Make it better for yourself
And then you can help someone else
I’ve been lost, and I’ve been found
When you’re hot
They’ll be around as long as you want
But just look like you’re about to take a drop
Everybody sing the song now
I wonder if I could get everybody
To join in with me and sing this song, come on
