The Bug
|
(Mark Knopfler)
|
|
Well it's a strange old game - you learn it slow
|
One step forward and it's back to go
|
You're standing on the throttle
|
You're standing on the brakes
|
In the groove 'til you make a mistake
|
|
Sometimes you're the windshield
|
Sometimes you're the bug
|
Sometimes it all comes together baby
|
Sometimes you're a fool in love
|
Sometimes you're the Louisville slugger
|
Sometimes you're the ball
|
Sometimes it all comes together baby
|
Sometimes you're going lose it all
|
|
You gotta know happy - you gotta know glad
|
Because you're gonna know lonely
|
And you're gonna know bad
|
When you're rippin' and a ridin' and you're coming on strong
|
You start slippin' and a slidin' and it all goes wrong, because
|
|
Sometimes you're the windshield
|
Sometimes you're the bug
|
Sometimes it all comes together baby
|
Sometimes you're a fool in love
|
Sometimes you're the Louisville slugger baby
|
Sometimes you're the ball
|
Sometimes it all comes together baby
|
Sometimes you're going lose it all
|
|
One day you got the glory
|
One day you got none
|
One day you're a diamond
|
And then you're a stone
|
|
Everything can change
|
In the blink of an eye
|
So let the good times roll
|
Before we say goodbye, because
|
|
Sometimes you're the windshield
|
Sometimes you're the bug
|
Sometimes it all comes together baby
|
Sometimes you're a fool in love
|
Sometimes you're the Louisville slugger baby
|
Sometimes you're the ball
|
Sometimes it all comes together baby
|
Sometimes you're going lose it all
|
