Bitter with the Sweet lyrics

Sometimes I'm tired and I wonder what's so all-fired important

About being someplace at some time

Oh, but I don't really mind

'Cause I could be on Easy Street, and I know that

You've got to take the bitter with the sweet

I guess it gets to everyone, you think you're not having any fun

And you wonder what you're doing playing the games you play

Hey, well, it's true what they say

If you want to feel complete, don't you know that

You've got to take the bitter with the sweet

A friend of mine once told me

And I know he knows all about feelin' down

He said everything good in life you've got to pay for

But feelin' good is what you're paving the way for

So don't let it get you down, my friend, though it seems the blues will never end

On this you can depend, they always do

And I can tell you that it's true, it's a feeling that can't be beat

And you've got to do it

You've got to take the bitter with the sweet
