But The World Goes 'round

Liza Minnelli · Other Songs - Liza Minnelli

Sometimes you're happy

And sometimes you're sad

But the world goes round

And sometimes you lose

Every nickel you had

But the world goes round

Sometimes you're dreams get broken in pieces

But that doesn't matter at all

Take it from me, there's still going to be

A summer, a winter, a spring and a fall

And sometimes a friend starts treating you bad

But the world goes round

And sometimes your heart breaks

With a deafing sound

Somebody loses, and somebody wins

And one day it's kicks

And it's kicks in the shins

But the plant spins

And world goes round and round

Sometimes you're happy and sometimes your sad

But the world goes round

And sometimes you lose

Every nickel you had

But the world goes round

Sometimes your dreams get broken in pieces

But that shouldn't altar a thing

Take it from me, there's till going to be

A summer, a winter, a fall and a spring

And sometimes a friend starts treating you bad

But the world goes round

And sometimes your heart breaks

With a deafing sound

Somebody loses, and somebody wins

And one day it's kicks then it's kicks in the shins

But the planet spins

And the world goes round

And round and round and round and round

The world goes round

And round

And round

And round
