Get It Right Next Time

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", 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 at the crossroads every highway looks the same

After a while you get to 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, mm-hmm
