That's the Way It Is, Cuz That's the Way It Is

Joe Charbonneau ยท That's the way it is (cuz that's the way it is)

 

Going crazy when she throws the dog a bone
And all you get is honey-dos and honey-don'ts
The more-and-more you beg her, the more she says she won't
That's the way it is - 'cuz that's the way it is

You gotta do what you were put here for - and that's the way it is
Stoke the fire, pace the floor - that's the way it is
The day's not done till your old lady snores - and that's the way it is
That's the way it is - 'cuz that's the way it is

Mother always told me this could be all mine
Never be out front and never fall behind
All a man has got to do is toe the line
That's the way it is - 'cuz that's the way it is

You make a wish, you've made a fool - 'cuz that's the way it is
When the favors of fate all come down to you - that's the way it is
The man's the man who wears the shoes - and that's the way it is
That's the way it is - 'cuz that's the way it is

Some days I wish it could all start again
And I make it about a mile before the air grows thin
But I gotta take a chance, even if I take it on the chin
That's the way it is - 'cuz that's the way it is

And yesterday ain't going away - that's the way it is
But tomorrow brings another day - and that's the way it is
Life comes down to the price you pay - and that's the way it is
That's the way it is - 'cuz that's the way it is
