Tell Me Why

I can understand it
Money’s what you’re working for
But I’m not a bandit
And I don’t love war
I can only find out
What it takes to have a lot
I don’t have no more doubt
I’ll keep what I’ve got
Tell me why, tell me why
If sometimes you are happy
Tell me why, tell me why
Other times you’re down
Tell me why, tell me why
Why some people are lucky
Tell me why, tell me why
Life goes up and down
Why is it that one guy’s
Got everythin' going well
Why the other ones try
Have to work like hell?
When your life is sunny
Everybody’s on your side
When it isn’t funny
You have got to hide
I don’t know where to go
If I will get an answer
It’s such a mistery
Anyway, who can say
If I’ll be a romancer
Go down in history
Tell me why, tell me why
If sometimes you are happy
Tell me why, tell me why
Other times you’re down
Tell me why, tell me why
Why some people are lucky
Tell me why, tell me why
Life goes up and down
I don’t even know yet
How to make the world go round
To be rich or in debt
To get off the ground
Don’t know the reason
I think I’ll never never know it
Who could ever answer?
Maybe I will never know
I don’t know where to go
If I will get an answer
It’s such a mistery
Anyway, who can say
If I’ll be a romancer
Go down in history
Tell me why, tell me why
If sometimes you are happy
Tell me why, tell me why
Other times you’re down
Tell me why, tell me why
Why some people are lucky
Tell me why, tell me why
Life goes up and down
Tell me why
Tell me why
Tell me why
Tell me why
Tell me why, tell me why
(I don’t know where to go)
If sometimes you are happy
Tell me why, tell me why
(Anyway, who can say)
Other times you’re down
Tell me why, tell me why
(I don’t know where to go)
Why some people are lucky
Tell me why, tell me why
(Anyway, who can say)
Life goes up and down
Tell me why, tell me why
(I don’t know where to go)
Tell me why, tell me why
(Anyway, who can say)
Tell me why, tell me why
(I don’t know where to go)
Tell me why, tell me why
(Anyway, who can say)
Life goes up and down
Tell me why
Sometimes you are happy
Tell me why
Other times you’re down
Tell me why
Some people are lucky
Tell me why
Life goes up and down
Tell me why
Sometimes you are happy
Tell me why
Other times you’re down
Tell me why
Some people are lucky
Tell me why
Life goes up and down
Tell me why
Life goes up and down
Tell me why
Sometimes you are happy
Tell me why
Other times you’re down
Tell me why
Some people are lucky
Tell me why
Life goes up and down
Tell me why
Sometimes you are happy
