Lyrics

Somebody’s gonna laugh today
Somebody’s gonna cry today
Somebody’s gonna take their very first breath of life today

Somebody’s gonna say I do
Somebody’s gonna say we’re through
Somebody’s gonna take a gamble and win somebody’s gonna lose
The world goes on and on, and on and on the world goes on

Somebody’s living high on life
Limousines, caviar and wine
Somebody’s working eight to five even over time barely getting by
And the world goes on

(Chorus)

The world goes on and on and on
It’s good; it’s bad, it’s right it’s wrong
It’s fair, it’s not, it’s all the world we’ve got
It’s love it’s hate, give and take, choices and the ones we make
What is to come will come and then be gone
The world goes on and on and on and on and on

Somebody is a homeless man
Somebody is our president
Somebody is you and me so why can’t we get along as friends
While the world goes on.

(Chorus)

The world goes on and on and on
It’s good it’s bad it’s right it’s wrong
It’s fair it’s not it’s all the world we’ve got
It’s love it’s hate, give and take, choices and the ones we make
What is to come will come and then be gone
The world goes on and on and on and on and on

Somebody’s gonna laugh today
Somebody’s gonna cry today
Somebody’s gonna take their very last breath of life today

Sometimes when I sit down to write, words just seem to flow out in a stream of consciousness. I got the first verse and the chorus and presented it to Chad (my co-writer) during a writing session.
