They say some days you're gonna win

They say some days you're gonna lose

I tell you I got news for you

You're losin' all the time, you never win, no If you believe that's how it's gonna be I'd better put you down

Get off your tightrope up there, come down on

The ground you gotta save me now, you better turn around When I looked around, I was heading down

Won't somebody throw me down a line? They say some days you gotta give

They say some days you gotta take

If that's the way it's gotta be

Roll it over and you will see The city streets are full of people going nowhere making time

The change from night to day is really only hours

It's just along the line, can't you see the sign? When I looked around, I was heading down

Won't somebody throw me down a line? I want to look you straight in the eye

I want to tell you how I really feel

And I can feel the wheels are turnin' round

Won't somebody throw me down a line? The city streets are full of people going nowhere making time

The change from night to day is really only hours

It's just along the line, can't you see the sign? When I closed my eyes, I was so surprised

Somebody had thrown me down the line, stopped me drownin'

Somebody had thrown me down the line
