Climbin' every mountain, always killing time
Count the cost as days go by
Monday I've got Friday on my mind
Why don't we make love 'stead of makin' plans?
Mother Nature, Father Time, maybe it's the family of man
Angels cry when they hear that tune
It's sleepless nights for the man in the moon
And it's the rhythm of life, mind's made up
Lucy's sign is the Chinese dragon
Oh, oh, she's got luck
The rhythm of life is the force of habit
Oh, oh, the rhythm of life
Give the girl the future, give her what she needs
Teach her life's a long flat road
Maybe she'll have better luck than me
Works so hard like he's still in school
His pockets are jammed, but this man's a fool
Within the rhythm of life, mind's made up
Lucy's sign is the Chinese dragon
Oh, oh, oh, she's got luck
The rhythm of life is the force of habit
Yeah, yeah, the rhythm of life, rhythm of life
Oh, when out of sight is out of mind
Shut your mouth, I'm doin' fine
Mother's goin' back in time
Within the rhythm of life
(Rhythm of life goes on)
It's goin' on and on
(Rhythm of life goes on)
Hey, yeah, the rhythm of life goes on
(Rhythm of life goes on)
