That's the Way That the World Goes Round - John Prine

I know a guy that's got a lot to lose
He's a pretty nice fellow, kind of confused
Got muscles in his head, ain't never been used
Thinks he owns half of this town

Started drinking heavy got a big red nose
Beats his old lady with a rubber hose
Then he took her out to dinner, bought her new clothes
That's the way that the world goes round

That's the way that the world goes round
You're up one day, the next you're down
It's a half an inch of water, you think you're gonna drown
That's the way that the world goes round

I sat in the bathtub counting my toes
When the radiator broke, water all froze
I got stuck in the ice without my clothes
Naked as the eyes of a clown

I was crying, "Ice cubes", hoping I'd croak
When the sun come through the window
The ice all broke, I stood up and laughed
Thought it was a joke
That's the way that the world goes round

That's the way that the world goes round
You're up one day, the next you're down
It's a half an inch of water, you think you're gonna drown
That's the way that the world goes round

That's the way that the world goes round
You're up one day, the next you're down
It's a happy inch of lighter
You think you're gonna drown
That's the way that the world goes round

That's the way that the world goes round
That's the way that the world goes round
That's the way that the world goes round
That's the way that the world goes round
