lyrics
HAT’S JUST THE WAY IT WENT DOWN
Life can be hard, life can be tough
It can swallow you whole and spit you out
And the coulda’s and the woulda’s and the shoulda-beens
Will make you crazy and drive you insane
You want to be free but you can’t admit what’s done is done and gone
That’s just the way it went down
That’s just the way it got played
That’s just the way it went down
It just went down that way x 2
We all get our share of some lousy deals
They break our hearts and shatter our worlds
And the pain can be so bad that it never goes away
It stays with you every day
Unlucky, unfair, tragic and cruel - it’s true
That’s just the way it went down
That’s just the way it got played
That’s just the way it went down
It just went down that way X 2
You gotta be a fighter, you gotta stay in the game
And never count on winning a thing
Just give it everything you got
And if you fall on your face - well - so what
Someday you’ll look back and and maybe you’ll smile
Maybe you’ll smile when you say - hey
That’s just the way it went down
That’s just the way it got played
That’s just the way it went down
It just went down that way X 4
