It Goes Like It Goes

Dusty Springfield · The Dusty Springfield Anthology [1997]

Ain't no miracle being born

People doin' it everyday

It ain't no miracle growing up

Ah, people just grow that way



So it goes like it goes, like the river flows

And time it rolls right on

Maybe what's good gets a little bit better

Maybe what's bad gets gone



Ah, bless the child of a working man

She knows too soon who she is

And bless the hands of a working man

Oh, he knows his soul is his



So it goes like it goes, like the river flows

And time roll right on

Maybe what's good gets a little bit better

Maybe what's bad gets gone



So it goes like it goes, like the river flows

Time keeps rolling on, oh

Maybe what's good gets a little bit better

Maybe what's bad gets gone
