Roll with the punches, don’t quit
Learn from your mistakes...

Retrievers are human, well that's what it seems
The friendliest moocher on this planet so green 
Let's all take advice
Never think twice
Just roll with the punches, try a bit of codeine

Very people like!!!...

Can't cure all the ills, there's good days and bad
Roll with punches, according to this experienced old lad
Been around many blocks
Had a few knocks
But all in all, it's been better than the alternative I might add...

Can't cure the ills of the world, there's good days and there's bad
Best we can do is roll with punches, listen to this experienced lad
Been around many blocks
Had a few knocks
But all in all, it's been better than average, I might add...

R-oll with the punches, 
O-utsmart the situation;
L-ife changes constantly, 
L-etting you get up, not 
Y-awn.

D-espite the odds be brave enough, 
E-vil deeds can't put you down;
L-ittle breakthrough truly brings  
I-mmeasurable result that you've found. 
Z-est and zeal dwell in your heart, aiming to give sweet success;   
O-nly the Lord God's guidance can make you roll with the punches....

This is my life
I was sent here to live 
Roll with the punches
The take and the give
Sometimes I don't 
Make the right choice
But I'm not afraid
To have my own voice
I live I love 
I laugh I cry
It's the way it goes
No one knows why
I made my choices
The good and the bad
These are my feelings
The happy and the sad
Please don't judge me 
You have nothing to gain
Let me do it my way
My life My pain...

The guy who did it first
got there last,
all a game of numbers
underclassed.

The one who's always winning
looks first class,
and the one who's always losing
feels abashed!

The side your on is total
its surmassed,
remembering the finish
dash by dash!

I venture to be humble
soul's rehash,
there is more truth in stumble
more contrast!

There is more grace in fumble
dropping stash
and giving in to tumble
when hopes crash!


(Roll with the punches!)...

Let go. 

Just let go. 

It's okay, there is no shame. 
This is no show, this is no game. 

This is life. 
It's okay to fail, 
just remember to 
never doubt your ability 
of getting back up. 

Roll with the punches, 
roll with the hooks. 
Grab yourself a pan! 
Think yourself a cook! 

Do what you can! 
Do what you may! 
Never let anyone tell you
this isn't your day! 

GET UP! GET UP! 
DON'T SLEEP! 
ONLY REST! 
      CARPE DIEM!!!...

ROLLING WITH THE PUNCHES

one true constant in life we all
know too well is 
change

just when you love that your days form
patterns, things grow
strange

circumstances change in split seconds
accidently they
rearrange

we have to roll with the punches
adjust , accept and
sustain 

go with the flow, try not to control
God has a plan to
maintain 

a bend in the road is not the
end of the road
unless
you fail to make the
turn
