lyrics

Why Bother

Sometimes you ride
Sometimes you fall
Sometimes you shine
Sometimes you’re dull

If it ain’t one thing it’s another
Makes you wonder why bother
At all

Today the dark clouds almost won
It was thunder & lightning & I was numb
The head games that you play
When you’re a lonely old stray
Are enough to put a dead fox on the run

Sometimes you ride
Sometimes you fall
Sometimes you shine
Sometimes you’re dull

If it ain’t one thing it’s another
Makes you wonder why bother
At all

They say that dark times are to come
Well I say come on and get you some
I don’t mean to feed your fears
But dark times been here for years
And it don’t look good now playin dumb

Sometimes you ride
Sometimes you fall
Sometimes you shine
Sometimes you’re dull

If it ain’t one thing it’s another
Makes you wonder why bother
At all
