Ups & Downs

Now, things was looking rosy, baby
And everything was fine
You never made no sign
That you had changed your mind

Well, I guess I was mistaken, girl
I counted so on you
But what else could I do?
It's time to pay my dues

And now, I've been torn up before
But I can handle that once more
I've been down for a long long time
But now it's time to ease my mind
There's lots of pain upon this earth
I've had my money's worth
And I have had my ups and downs and all around

I've tried to change your ways of thinkin'
I've tried to make you see
Livin' here with me
Is where you ought to be

It didn't seem to make no difference
It never changed your world
Or stopped your social twirl
You're still the same old girl

Well now, I've been torn up before
And I could handle that once more
I've been down for a long long time
But now it's time to ease my mind
There's lots of pain upon this earth
And now I've had my money's worth
And I have had my ups and downs and all around

Well now, I've been torn up before
But I could handle that once more
I've been down for a long long long long long time
Time to ease my mind
There's lots of pain upon this earth
Now I've had my money's worth
And I have had my ups and downs and all around

I've been up, 'n down, all around, now baby
I've been up, 'n down, all around, now baby
I've been up and down and all around, now baby
