Couple of guys sittin' around drinkin' |
|
Down at the Starlight Bar |
|
One of 'em says, "You know I've been thinking" |
|
Other one says, "That won't get you too far" |
|
He says, "This is your life, and welcome to it |
|
It's just workin' and drinkin' and dreams |
|
Ad on TV says 'Just Do It' |
|
Hell if I know what that means" |
|
|
|
The secret of life is a good cup of coffee |
|
The secret of life is keep your eye on the ball |
|
The secret of life is a beautiful woman |
|
And Marilyn stares down from the barroom wall |
|
|
|
"You and me, we're just a couple of zeros |
|
Just a couple of down-and-outs |
|
But movie stars and football heroes |
|
What have they got to be unhappy about?" |
|
So they turn to the bartender, "Sam, what do you think? |
|
What's the key that unlocks that door?" |
|
Sam don't say nothin', just wipes off the bar |
|
And he pours them a couple more |
|
|
|
'Cause the secret of life is in Sam's martinis |
|
The secret of life is in Marilyn's eyes |
|
The secret of life is in Monday Night Football |
|
Rolling Stones records and Mom's apple pie |
|
|
|
Sam looks up from his Sunday paper |
|
Says, "Boys, you're on the wrong track |
|
The secret of life is there ain't no secret |
|
And you don't get your money back" |
|
Hey |
|
|
|
The secret of life is gettin' up early |
|
The secret of life is stayin' up late |
|
The secret of life is try not to hurry |
|
But don't wait |
|
Don't wait |
|
|
|
The secret of life is a good cup of coffee |
|
The secret of life is keep your eye on the ball |
|
The secret of life is to find the right woman |
|
The secret of life is nothin' at all |
|
Oh, it's nothin' at all |
|
The secret of life |
|
