That’s The Way Lyrics by Same Side

Dead Formats: Vol 3

2024

[Verse 1]
I don't know how I'm gonna tell you
I can't play with you no more
I don't know how I'm gonna do what mama told me
My friend, the boy next door

[Verse 2]
I can't believe what people sayin'
You're gonna let your hair hang down
I'm satisfied to sit here working all day long
You're in the darker side of town

[Verse 3]
And when I'm out I see you walking
Why don't your eyes see me?
Could it be you've found another game to play?
What did mama say to me?

[Chorus]
That's the way
That's the way it ought to be
Mama say that's the way it ought to stay

[Verse 4]
And yesterday I saw you standing by the river
Weren't those tears that filled your еyes?
And all the fish that lay in dirty water dyin'
Had thеy got you hypnotized?

[Verse 5]
And yesterday I saw you kissing tiny flowers
But all that lives is born to die
So I say to you that nothing really matters
And all you do is stand and cry

[Verse 6]
I don't know what to say about it
When all your ears have turned away
But now's the time to look, and look again at what you see
Is that the way it ought to stay?

[Chorus]
That's the way
That's the way it ought to be
Mama said that's the way it's ought to stay
