Well,
you can lead a horse to water,
but you can't make him drink.
You can send a boy to college,
but you can't make him think.
You can roll a rock, but you can't rock a roll.
You can preach to a shoe,
but you can't save its soul.
Now that's the way it is.
It's the same all over.
Weeds are weed, and clover's clover.
A woman is a woman, and a man is a man.
You put them both together,
and he's putty in her hand.
Well,
you can stop your clock,
but you can't stop time.
You can kiss your woman,
but you can't kiss mine.
She's true blue,
and she wears a blue bonnet,
and everything's better with blue bonnet on it.
Now that's the way it is.
It's the same all over.
Weeds are weed, and clover's clover.
A woman is a woman, and a man is a man.
You put them both together,
and he's putty in her hand.
Now,
you can overlook love,
but you can't deny it.
You can shop for love,
but your money can't buy it.
You can live for money,
and the things it'll give you.
You can die for the stuff,
but you can't take it with you.
Now that's the way it is.
It's the same all over.
Weeds are weed, and clover's clover.
A woman is a woman, and a man is a man.
You put them both together,
and he's putty in her hand.
A woman is a woman, and a man is a man.
And you put them both together,
he's putty in her hand.
