Gerry Rafferty - Get It Right The Next Time lyrics

Out on the street, I was talking to a man He said, there's so much of this life of mine that I don't understand You shouldn't worry, I said, that ain't no crime 'Cause if you get it wrong, you'll get it right next time, next time You need direction, yeah, you need a name When you're standing in the crossroads every highway looks the same After a while, you can recognize the signs So if you get it wrong you'll get it right next time, next time Life is a liar, yeah, life is a cheat It'll lead you on and pull the ground from underneath your feet No use complaining, don't you worry, don't you whine 'Cause if you get it wrong, you'll get it right next time, next time You got to grow, you got to learn by your mistakes You got to die a little every day just to try to stay awake When you believe there's no mountain you can climb And if you get it wrong, you'll get it right next time, next time Next time, hmm
