가사
[Verse 1]
When I was just a youngster, this man looked down and said
He said, "What you gonna be when you grow up?
I just know you'll get ahead"
[Verse 2]
But it didn't turn out that way
It just didn't turn out that way
No matter what that old man said
It just didn't turn out that way
[Verse 3]
When I was a schoolboy, my teacher said to me
"Work hard, do right, you can be what you want to be"
[Verse 4]
But it didn't turn out that way
It just didn't turn out that way
No matter what that teacher said
It just didn't turn out that way
[Verse 5]
And then when I was a young man, I was looking for a mate
I met this girl and we declared we'd share a mutual fate
[Verse 6]
But it didn't turn out that way
Just didn't turn out that way
No matter what we used to say
It just didn't turn out that way
[Verse 7]
Well, I became a wanderer, left my old life behind
I thought if I went far enough, I'd find my peace of mind
[Verse 8]
But it didn't turn out that way
It just didn't turn out that way
No matter what I'd like to say
It just didn't turn out that way
