| Same old story, same old song
|
| Goes all right, till it goes all wrong
|
| Now you’re going, then you’re gone
|
| Same old story, same old song
|
| Same old story, same old song
|
| Goes all right, till it goes all wrong
|
| Now you’re going, then you’re gone
|
| Same old story, same old song
|
| One hand will take, one hand will give
|
| That’s all we know and that is how we live
|
| One day hello and the next day goodbye
|
| And everyone does their part
|
| Same old story, same old song
|
| Goes all right, baby, till it goes all wrong
|
| Now you’re going, then you’re gone
|
| Same old story, same old song
|
| One builds you up, one tears you down
|
| To some you’re a saint and to others you’re a clown
|
| What can you do? |
| I just go on, I see it through
|
| And hold on to what is left of you
|
| Same old story, same old song
|
| Goes all right, till it goes all wrong
|
| Now you’re going, then you’re gone
|
| Same old story, same old song
|
| Used to drive a Cadillac, had a house on the hill
|
| And money by the bank, carry on by bubble bath
|
| With the finest clothes, never looked at the tags
|
| Till I went too crazy and it went all bad
|
| Lost all the fortune that I thought I had
|
| Thought I made it out by the scenes, I’m right back
|
| Back to hard living, back to hard times
|
| Back to working hard for the nickel n dime
|
| Back to the city with the dirt and crack
|
| Got me feeling like I wanna go commit some crimes
|
| Same old story with the same old grime
|
| Guess the thoughts I had, had never come to shine
|
| Same old story each and every time
|
| Each and every time
|
| Same old story each and every time
|
| One builds you up, one tears you down
|
| To some you’re a saint and to others you’re a clown
|
| What can you do? |
| I see it through
|
| And hold on to what is left of you
|
| Same old story, same old song
|
| Goes all right, until it goes all wrong
|
| Now you’re going, then you’re gone
|
| Same old story, baby, same old song
|
| Same old story, same old song
|
| Now you’re going and then, baby
|
| Goes all wrong
|
| Now you’re going and then you’re gone
|
| Same old story, same old song |
