"The Way Things Are Goin'"


The way things are goin' in my life 
I'm headed for disaster 
Livin' fast and faster 
A rebel on a roller coaster ride 
That's the way things are goin' in my life 

The very folks that mean the most to me 
They're as distant as the sunset 
I need 'em every one yet 
I hurt 'em till they just can't hardly be 
The very folks that mean the most to me 

It would be easy to abandon 
A man who's so demandin' 
But somehow she's still standin' here with me 
If I could conjure up a miracle 
Find comfort in the spiritual 
I guess I'd pray for some serenity...but that ain't me 

And the way things are goin' in my life 
I guess it won't be long now 
Oh before she's gone now 
She might say goodbye just to prove me right 
That's the way things are goin' in my life 

It would be easy to abandon 
A man who's so demandin' 
But somehow she's still standin' here with me 
If I could conjure up a miracle 
Find comfort in the spiritual 
I guess I'd pray for some serenity 

I guess it won't be long now 
Oh before she's gone now 
She might say goodbye just to prove me right 
That's the way things are goin' in my life 
Yeah, that's the way things are goin' in my life
