Turn Around
Los Lobos · Other Songs - Los Lobos
Or being confident
Not for smiling, even crying
'Bout sentiment
Not 'bout richer or poorer
Or being affluent
Not 'bout sharp or even clever
Or intelligent, intelligent
Don't really matter at all
When a house of card's gonna fall
Before you try again
Turn around, turn around
Turn around, turn around
Never 'bout being wrong
Or ever right
Never a winner or a loser
Or acting outta sight, outta sight
Don't really matter at all
When a house of card's gonna fall
Before you try again
Turn around, turn around
Turn around
Before you try again
Turn around
Whether coming or going
Never know what to do
Never look for a reason
When you break the rules
Before you try again
Turn around, turn around
Turn around, turn around
Before you try again
Turn around
