Lyrics:

It dont matter if youre rich

It dont make no difference if youre poor

Simple things in life can make you mad to the core

It doesnt matter if youre young

Dont make no difference if youre old

You got to stand a little rain

Before you reach a pot of gold



Chorus:

Everybody gets the blues

Everybody got to cry

Take the good with the bad

Take the lows and the high

Well you work and you worry

Spend you life paying dues

Everybody has a hard time sometime

Everybody gets the blues



Aint no different for a woman

Than it is for a man

Everybody goes dancing

Everybody pays the band

Everybody got to take

Everybody got to give

Everybody got to live



[repeat chorus]



Dont matter if youre fat

Dont matter if youre thin

Everybody got to lose

Everybody got to win

Dont matter if youre black

Dont matter if youre white

You know you got to get it wrong

To have a chance to make it right



[repeat chorus]
