You Ain't Doin' It Right

I was comin' off of a heartache

Addin' up all my mistake you know how it is

An' I was beatin' up myself up real good

Over all those shoulda coulds but never dids

An' I could lose myself in myself pity

But I done that an' that ain't pretty

An' somewhere in this mess I've made

Is my philosophy

That if you don't jump every chance you get

Roll a dice an' run some risks

If you don't fall, then how you ever gonna fly?

An' if you don't break an' you don't bruise

If you don't look back an' laugh at one or two

Wrong moves in your life

Yeah, you ain't doin' it right

I've been flush an' flat broke

Made some lousy bets, but that's okay, yeah that's all right

'Cause never gamblin', never losin'

Is a sorry substitution for livin' life

Yeah, I've got scars that I'm proud of

I've been down but I got up

An' the only thing I know about love is

There ain't no guarantees

So if you don't jump every chance you get

Roll a dice an' run some risks

If you don't fall, then how you ever gonna fly?

An' if you don't break an' you don't bruise

If you don't look back an' laugh at one or two

Wrong moves in your life

Yeah, you ain't doin' it right

So go ahead an' put the bow to the fiddle

Pick you a spot an' jump in the middle

Love just a little

Then love just a little more

If you don't jump every chance you get

Roll a dice an' run some risks

If you don't fall, then how you ever gonna fly?

And if you don't break an' you don't bruise

And if you don't look back an' laugh at one or two

Wrong moves in your life

Yeah, you ain't doin' it right

You ain't doin' it right
