You Ain't Doin' It Right
I was comin' off of a heartacheAddin' up all my mistake you know how it isAn' I was beatin' up myself up real goodOver all those shoulda coulds but never didsAn' I could lose myself in myself pityBut I done that an' that ain't prettyAn' somewhere in this mess I've madeIs my philosophyThat if you don't jump every chance you getRoll a dice an' run some risksIf you don't fall, then how you ever gonna fly?An' if you don't break an' you don't bruiseIf you don't look back an' laugh at one or twoWrong moves in your lifeYeah, you ain't doin' it rightI've been flush an' flat brokeMade some lousy bets, but that's okay, yeah that's all right'Cause never gamblin', never losin'Is a sorry substitution for livin' lifeYeah, I've got scars that I'm proud ofI've been down but I got upAn' the only thing I know about love isSongtexteThere ain't no guaranteesSo if you don't jump every chance you getRoll a dice an' run some risksIf you don't fall, then how you ever gonna fly?An' if you don't break an' you don't bruiseIf you don't look back an' laugh at one or twoWrong moves in your lifeYeah, you ain't doin' it rightSo go ahead an' put the bow to the fiddlePick you a spot an' jump in the middleLove just a littleThen love just a little moreIf you don't jump every chance you getRoll a dice an' run some risksIf you don't fall, then how you ever gonna fly?And if you don't break an' you don't bruiseAnd if you don't look back an' laugh at one or twoWrong moves in your lifeYeah, you ain't doin' it rightYou ain't doin' it right Aus Songtexte Mania
