That's the Way It Was
Ever since yesterday and the day you were born,
You heard baby blues blowin' his horn.
From the moment you opened your eyes to see,
You think "That's the way it was and it always will be."
That's the way it was and it always will be.
You look every person straight in the eyes,
And never once blink as they tell their lies.
People live their lives in a minor key.
Yeah, that's the way it was and it always will be.
That's the way it was.
You stumble through life together alone,
Working your fingers for a stack of bones.
Clear your eyes each morning, but all that you see
Is that's the way it was and it always will be.
That's the way it was.
All life long you played the cards so tough,
Then you come to the end, but it's not enough.
Under six feet of dirt, what is there to see?
That's the way it was and it always will be.
That's the way it was and it always will be.
That's the way it was.
Ever since yesterday and the day you were born,
You heard baby blues blowin' his horn.
From the moment you opened your eyes to see,
You think...
You heard baby blues blowin' his horn.
From the moment you opened your eyes to see,
You think "That's the way it was and it always will be."
That's the way it was and it always will be.
You look every person straight in the eyes,
And never once blink as they tell their lies.
People live their lives in a minor key.
Yeah, that's the way it was and it always will be.
That's the way it was.
You stumble through life together alone,
Working your fingers for a stack of bones.
Clear your eyes each morning, but all that you see
Is that's the way it was and it always will be.
That's the way it was.
All life long you played the cards so tough,
Then you come to the end, but it's not enough.
Under six feet of dirt, what is there to see?
That's the way it was and it always will be.
That's the way it was and it always will be.
That's the way it was.
Ever since yesterday and the day you were born,
You heard baby blues blowin' his horn.
From the moment you opened your eyes to see,
You think...
