The way things are goin in my life
Im headed for disaster
Livin fast and faster
A rebel on a roller coaster ride
Thats the way things are goin in my life
The very folks that mean the most to me
Theyre as distant as the sunset
I need em every one yet
I hurt em till they just cant hardly be
The very folks that mean the most to me
It would be easy to abandon
A man whos so demandin
But somehow shes still standin here with me
If I could conjure up a miracle
Find comfort in the spiritual
I guess Id pray for some serenity...but that aint me
And the way things are goin in my life
I guess it wont be long now
Oh before shes gone now
She might say goodbye just to prove me right
Thats the way things are goin in my life
It would be easy to abandon
A man whos so demandin
But somehow shes still standin here with me
If I could conjure up a miracle
Find comfort in the spiritual
I guess Id pray for some serenity
I guess it wont be long now
Oh before shes gone now
She might say goodbye just to prove me right
Thats the way things are goin in my life
Yeah, thats the way things are goin in my life
