| Sometimes I feel so uninspired
|
| Sometimes I feel like giving up
|
| Sometimes I feel so very tired
|
| Sometimes I feel like I’ve had enough
|
| Sometimes you feel like you’ve been hired
|
| Sometimes you feel like you’ve been bought
|
| Sometimes you feel like your room’s been wired
|
| Sometimes you feel like you’ve been caught
|
| But don’t let it get you down, no, no
|
| There is no reason for not failing
|
| You’ve got to smile and turn the other cheek
|
| So today you might be down
|
| But by tomorrow you’ll be sailing
|
| And you won’t even hear these words I speak
|
| Some people want to be so desired
|
| Some people can’t stand the light of day
|
| Somebody’s laughing while someone is crying
|
| Old folks are watching the close of the day
|
| But sometimes I feel like my head is spinning
|
| Hunger and pain is all I see
|
| I don’t know who’s losing
|
| And I don’t know who’s winning
|
| Hardships and trouble are following me
|
| But don’t let it get you down, no, no
|
| There is no reason for not failing
|
| You’ve got to smile and turn the other cheek
|
| So today you might be down
|
| But by tomorrow you’ll be sailing
|
| And you won’t even hear these words I speak
|
| Some people want to be so desired
|
| Some people can’t stand the light of day
|
| Somebody’s laughing while someone is crying
|
| Old folks are watching the close of the day
|
| Sometimes I feel like my head is spinning
|
| Hunger and pain is all I see, yeah
|
| I don’t know who’s losing
|
| And I don’t care who’s winning
|
| Hardships and trouble are following me, yeah, yeah |
