Status Quo - The Way It Goes lyrics
Artist: Status Quo
album: Quo'ing in - The Best of the Noughties
Living isn't easy, feeling bright and breezy
Everybody has to try
Seeing and believing, never show the reason why
Even when we grow up and our bodies slow up, no, no, no
We think again but do we understand?
That's the way it goes, oh everybody knows
That you can't survive if you ain't got drive
Those velvet wings can't help you fly
Those velvet wings won't always help you to get by
But you must carry on
People try and tell you anything they want to
Saying that it's only fun
When they got you looking down the barrel of a gun
Never if we know it are we gonna blow it, no, no, no
We think again and so we understand
That's the way it goes, oh everybody knows
That you can't survive if you ain't got drive
Those velvet wings can't help you fly
Those velvet wings won't always help you to get by
But you must carry on
I haven't told any secrets
I swore not to tell any lies
Something inside me is saying
That's the way it goes, that's the way it goes
Those velvet wings can't help you fly
Those velvet wings won't always help you to get by
But you must carry on
That's the way it goes, oh everybody knows
That you can't survive if you ain't got drive
Those velvet wings can't help you fly
Those velvet wings won't always help you to get by
But you must carry on
Yeah, those velvet wings can't help you fly
Those velvet wings won't always help you to get by
But you must carry on
Everybody has to try
Seeing and believing, never show the reason why
Even when we grow up and our bodies slow up, no, no, no
We think again but do we understand?
That's the way it goes, oh everybody knows
That you can't survive if you ain't got drive
Those velvet wings can't help you fly
Those velvet wings won't always help you to get by
But you must carry on
People try and tell you anything they want to
Saying that it's only fun
When they got you looking down the barrel of a gun
Never if we know it are we gonna blow it, no, no, no
We think again and so we understand
That's the way it goes, oh everybody knows
That you can't survive if you ain't got drive
Those velvet wings can't help you fly
Those velvet wings won't always help you to get by
But you must carry on
I haven't told any secrets
I swore not to tell any lies
Something inside me is saying
That's the way it goes, that's the way it goes
Those velvet wings can't help you fly
Those velvet wings won't always help you to get by
But you must carry on
That's the way it goes, oh everybody knows
That you can't survive if you ain't got drive
Those velvet wings can't help you fly
Those velvet wings won't always help you to get by
But you must carry on
Yeah, those velvet wings can't help you fly
Those velvet wings won't always help you to get by
But you must carry on
