Some folks dont like working hard Some folks dont like rain Some folks love to tell you All about their aches and pains Me -I take the hand Im dealt And play it as it lays Its the cost of living And everyone pays
You can live in memories Of all your golden yesterdays Or spend your whole life grieving for The one that got away Common sense says let her go But your heart disobeys Its the cost of living And everyone pays Blue shadows falling All around me Still I dont regret a single day
(Instrumental)
I look in the mirror now I see that time can be unkind But I know every wrinkle And I earned every line So wear it like a royal crown When you get old and grey Its the cost of living And everyone pays Its the cost of living And everyone pays
