I've tried livin' it risky, relied on women and whiskey
To chase my blues, turn my nights to days
First rage only a pastime, with age more than a lifetime
Day in, day out the world just turns away

But everybody knows you live and you learn
But the lessons just go on and on
I guess we're gonna have to wait for all the pages to turn
To find out if it's right or if it's wrong, you live and learn

I've stopped lookin' for questions, I've got only suggestions
Black and white can only turn to grey
In time we're all gonna find out our times all gonna wind out
And just count down until that judgement day

But everybody knows you live and you learn
But the lessons just go on and on and on
I guess we're gonna have to wait for all the pages to turn
To find out if it's right or if it's wrong, you live and learn, you live and learn
