well it's a strange old game - you learn it slowone step forward and it's back to goyou're standing on the throttleyou're standing on the breaksin the groove 'til you make a mistakesometimes you're the windshieldsometimes you're the bugsometimes it all comes together babysometimes you're a fool in lovesometimes you're the louisville sluggersometimes you're the ballsometimes it all comes together babysometimes you're going to lose it allyou gotta know happy - you gotta know gladbecause you're gonna know lonelyand you're gonna know badwhen you're rippin' and a ridin'and you're coming on strongyou start slippin' and slidin'and it all goes wrong becausesometimes you're the windshieldsometimes you're the bugsometimes it all comes together babysometimes you're a fool in lovesometimes you're the louisville slugger babysometimes you're the ballsometimes it all comes together babysometimes you're going to lose it allone day you got the gloryone day you got noneone day you're a diamondand then you're a stoneeverything can changein the blink of an eyeso let the good times rollbefore we say goodbye, becausesometimes you're the windshieldsometimes you're the bugsometimes it all comes together babysometimes you're a fool in lovesometimes you're the louisville slugger babysometimes you're the ballsometimes it all comes together babysometimes you're going to lose it all
