I can understand it |
|
money's what you're working for |
|
But I'm not a bandit and I don't love war. |
|
I can only find out what it takes to have a lot |
|
I don't have no more doubt |
|
I'll keep what I've got! |
|
Tell me why |
|
tell me why |
|
if sometimes you are happy |
|
Tell me why |
|
tell me why other times you're down |
|
Tell me why |
|
tell me why |
|
why some people are lucky |
|
Tell me why |
|
tell me why life goes up and down. |
|
Why is it that one guy's got everythin' going well |
|
Why the other ones try |
|
have to work like hell? |
|
When your life is sunny |
|
everybody's on your side |
|
When it isn't funny |
|
you have got to hide. |
|
I don't know where to go if I will get an answer |
|
it's such a mistery! |
|
Anyway |
|
who can say if I'll be a romancer |
|
go down in history. |
|
Tell me why |
|
tell me why |
|
if sometimes you are happy |
|
. . . |
|
I don't even know yet how to make the world go round |
|
To be rich or in debt |
|
to get off the ground. |
|
Don't know the reason |
|
I think I'll never |
|
never know it |
|
Who could ever answer? Maybe I wirr never I<now. |
