The Way It Goes
dray

A quick glance a sly smile/ a little wave from across the room
A pretty face a handsome grin/ on the patio a lazy afternoon
He ordered a drink she took the drink/ the conversation was so cool
A little drive a motel dive/ just imagine what those 2 would do
Now he’s got a lady she’s got a man/ but that day they really didn’t give a care
They loved they touched they did too much/ too crazy for a one day stand

And that’s just the way it goes (repeat)

Then he goes home and she goes home/ they got each other on the mind
They try to forget but they can’t forget/ that motel dive room 4-0-9
He’s with his wife but making love/ to a woman with those hazel brown eyes
She’s with a man but thinking of him/ she moans like she never did before
And then one day it’s on the sly/ she decides to drive by Clyde’s
A rum and sprite she thinks of that night/ the feelings the pleasure the oh oh oh---

And that’s just the way it goes

Now this other guy is on her side/ she’s so ready to get her little freak on that night
But in walks him she give a grin/ he knows and she knows what’s going down
She gives a wink he gives a smile/ wishing his hand was the one in her hand
She leaves the place still lookin’ so fine/ have a good time back in room 4-0-9

And that’s just the way it goes
