Get It Right Next Time lyrics

Out on the street I was talkin' to a man

He said "there's so much of this life of mine that I don't understand"

You shouldn't worry yes 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 complainin', don't you worry, don't you whine

Cause if you get it wrong you'll get it right next time (next time).

You gotta grow, you gotta learn by your mistakes

You gotta die a little everyday 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, hmmmmm
