[length: 03:47]
[00:01.35]Oh, I got glue on my strings
[00:07.55]That’s the way that the world goes ’round
[00:10.27]
[00:36.19]I know a guy that’s got a lot to lose
[00:38.89]He’s a pretty nice fellow, kinda confused
[00:41.85]Got muscles in his head, ain’t never been used
[00:45.04]Thinks he own half of this town
[00:49.41]Starts drinking heavy, gets a big red nose
[00:52.73]Beats his old lady with a rubber hose
[00:55.46]Then he takes her out to dinner, buys her new clothes
[00:58.65]That’s the way that the world goes ’round
[01:02.05]That’s the way that the world goes ’round
[01:04.90]You’re up one day, the next you’re down
[01:07.86]It’s half an inch of water and you think you’re gonna drown
[01:11.20]That’s the way that the world goes ’round
[01:15.67]
[01:38.29]I was sitting in the bathtub, counting my toes
[01:41.76]When the radiator broke, water all froze
[01:44.68]I got stuck in the ice without my clothes
[01:47.97]Naked as the eyes of a clown
[01:52.12]I was crying, “Ice cubes”, hoping I’d croak
[01:55.52]When the sun come through the window, the ice all broke
[01:58.77]I stood up and laughed, thought it was a joke
[02:01.36]That’s the way that the world goes ’round
[02:05.14]That’s the way that the world goes ’round
[02:08.16]You’re up one day, the next you’re down
[02:10.81]It’s half an inch of water and you think you’re gonna drown
[02:14.47]That’s the way that the world goes ’round
[02:18.02]
[02:41.98]That’s the way that the world goes ’round
[02:45.16]You’re up one day, the next you’re down
[02:48.05]It’s half an inch of water and you think you’re gonna drown
[02:51.23]That’s the way that the world goes ’round
[02:54.24]That’s the way that the world goes ’round
[02:57.40]That’s the way that the world goes ’round
