You Run Around (1998 Muscle Shoals Album Version)

Every time I think I got it all figured out

Then I draw a blank

and my whole world crashes down

So many people have got it worse than me

But that could change tomorrow,

ain't no guarantee

()

How soon we forget

To count every blessing

If you think you got it bad take a look around

How soon we forget

That life is one big lesson

Still we make the same mistakes

time and time again

How soon we forget

Got a freind of mine

who says he's run all out of luck

But he'll be fine,

'cause he just ain't drunk enough

The world is empty

when you're slammin' those shots down

How can you be happy, son

when the devil's hangin' 'round

How soon we forget

To count every blessing

If you think you got it bad

take a look around

How soon we forget

That life is one big lesson

Still we make the same mistakes

time and time again

How soon we forget

How soon we forget

Just remember, thank God you're here today

If you got the will you can find a way

How soon we forget... oh, baby

How soon we forget

To count every blessing

If you think you got it bad take a look around

How soon we forget

That life is one big lesson

Still we make the same mistakes

time and time again

There's a message to this madness here my freind

Will we ever learn before the story ends

Soon we all forget

How soon we forget

Soon we forget. ooh

Take a look around and you will see

Soon we all forget... oh

So many people have got it worse than me

Oh. can't you see

How soon we all forget
