Life is funny, baby
Sometimes hard to hold on
Just when you think you've got it figured out
You figured wrong
And though you think that your bad luck
Is caused by someone else
Take the time to realize, baby
The Lord helps those who help themselves

And though it's hard to understand
What you're goin' through
You know better than anyone
What's good for you

So take this with you, darlin'
The choice is yours and yours alone
Life just happens when we're lookin' further down the road
And in between the heartache and grief you cry about
Take the time to realize, baby
People on the way that help you out

"Woe is me!" you cried
But give it some time
The grass is always greener right here
