My best friend's ship is sinking She thinks her man's been cheating And me, I put my dog down yesterday And when the walls start falling I can hear the whiskey calling Sounds like we could both just use a drink Ain't that how life goes? No, we ain't alone Someone's crying, someone's kissing Someone's smiling, someone's bitching Someone's celebrating While someone's heart is breaking If you're on cloud nine, or you've been knocked down There's a neon light on the edge of town So if the world just keeps on spinning We'll be keeping bars in business There's a couple in a back booth Just got back from Cancun Getting blue moon drunk in that honeymoon phase And by the window there's an old man With a ring still on his left hand Even though she's been gone, ten years to the day Someone's crying, someone's kissing Someone's smiling, someone's bitching Someone's celebrating While someone's heart is breaking If you're on cloud nine, or you've been knocked down There's a neon light on the edge of town So if the world just keeps on spinning We'll be keeping bars in business Keeping bars in business Yeah, ain't that how life goes? No, we ain't alone No, we ain't alone Someone's crying, someone's kissing Someone's smiling, someone's bitching Someone's celebrating While someone's heart is breaking If you're on cloud nine, or you've been knocked down There's a neon light on the edge of town So if the world just keeps on spinning We'll be keeping bars in business Keeping bars in business Yeah, life is hard, so it ain't hard Life is hard, so it ain't hard Life is hard, so it ain't hard Yeah, ain't that how life goes?
