| Sometimes I’m tired and I wonder
|
| What’s so all-fired important
|
| About being someplace at some time
|
| Oh, but I don’t really mind
|
| Cause I could be on Easy Street
|
| And I know that
|
| You’ve got to take the bitter with the sweet
|
| I guess it gets to everyone
|
| You think you’re not having fun
|
| And you wonder what you’re doing
|
| Playing the games you play
|
| Hey, well, it’s true what they say
|
| If ou want to feel complete
|
| Don’t you know that
|
| You’ve got to take the bitter with the sweet
|
| A friend of mine once told me
|
| And I know he knows all about feelin' down
|
| He said everything good in life
|
| You’ve got to pay for
|
| But feelin' good is waht you’re
|
| Paving the way for
|
| So, don’t let it get you down, my friend
|
| Though it seems the blues will never end
|
| On this you can depend, they always do
|
| And I can tell you that it’s true
|
| It’s a feeling that can’t be beat
|
| And you’ve got to do it
|
| You’ve got to take the bitter with the sweet |
