The Secret of Life lyrics

Couple of guys sittin' around drinkin'

Down at the Starlight Bar

One of 'em says, you know I been thinkin' -

Other one says that won't get you too far

He says this is your life and welcome to it -

It's just workin' and drinkin' and dreams

Ad on the TV says "Just do it" -

Hell, if I know what that means ...

The secret of life is a good cup of coffee

The secret of life is keep your eye on the ball

The secret of life is a beautiful woman

And Marilyn stares down from the barroom wall ...

You and me, we're just a couple of zeroes -

Just a couple of down-and-outs

But movie stars and football heroes -

What've they got to be unhappy about?

So they turn to the bartender, "Sam, what do you think -

What's the key that unlocks that door?"

Sam don’t say nothin', he just wipes down the bar

And he pours 'em a couple more

'Cause the secret of life is in Sam's martinis

The secret of life is in Marilyn's eyes

The secret of life is in Monday night football

And Rolling Stones records and Mom's apple pies

Sam looks up from his Sunday paper

He says, boys, you're on the wrong track

The secret of life is there ain't no secret

And you don't get your money back

The secret of life is gettin' up early

The secret of life is stayin' up late

The secret of life is try not to hurry

But don't wait, don't wait ...

The secret of life is a good cup of coffee

The secret of life is keep your eye on the ball

The secret of life is to find the right woman

The secret of life is nothin' at all

Nothin' at all

The secret of life

Couple of guys sittin' around drinkin'

Down at the Starlight Bar

One of 'em says, you know I been thinkin' -

Other one says that won't get you too far
