The Bruisers - The Way It Goes lyrics

He bought the car for 500 bucks It took every cent he had With a cross taped to the dash for luck Never wanted anything so bad Nobody knew he left town that day Cause they never know he was there The funny looking kid with the cheap tattoos And grease stuck in his hair But he just said That's the way it goes When you're around nobody knows And when your gone life goes on With a loveless heart and a tank full of gas He headed out onto the overpa** Gonna take that road wherever it goes That was 4 or 5 years ago And that old car's running still He thinks about going back sometimes But he knows that he never will He's been playing with fire and he's been burned And it's got him feeling low He just laughs and turns the radio on Cause that's the way it goes But he just said That's the way it goes When you're around nobody knows And when your gone life goes on With a loveless heart and a tank full of gas He headed out onto the overpa** Gonna take that road wherever it goes He pulled into town around 9 o'clock And that's when that old car died On an empty street with no cars in sight He just pushed it to the side He looked up and saw that girl drive by He just turned and watched her go She was the best damn girl he'd ever seen He just laughed cause that's the way it goes But he just said That's the way it goes When you're around nobody knows And when your gone life goes on With a loveless heart and a tank full of gas He headed out onto the overpa** Gonna take that road wherever it goes
