《It Is What It Is(And That’s All)》歌词

[00:00:00] It Is What It Is (And That's All) (Album Version) - Steve Forbert

[00:00:15] Fell for this dream girl in Danville

[00:00:19] Just in the Central Time zone

[00:00:22] I used to kill hours to meet her on time

[00:00:26] And then lost one as well drivin' home

[00:00:30] Mexican boy on Doheny

[00:00:34] Sellin' a map to stars' homes

[00:00:38] Maybe he's homeless

[00:00:40] And maybe they're gone

[00:00:41] And the afternoon traffic rolls on

[00:00:45] Driving a Jaguars impressive

[00:00:49] But you can't watch it go by

[00:00:53] And the Manhattan skyline is a sight to behold

[00:00:56] But prob'ly best through New Jersey based eyes

[00:01:01] It is what it is and that's all

[00:01:05] What are you going to do

[00:01:08] Will some fool look up on a clear day and say

[00:01:12] That the sky's not a true enough blue

[00:01:16] It never much rains but it's pouring

[00:01:20] Everything happens at once

[00:01:24] Flat tires and light bulbs while picture frames fall

[00:01:27] From the wall where they've hung fine for months

[00:01:31] It is what it is and that's all

[00:01:35] Lay down a mat by the door

[00:01:39] Will some fool rush in from a cloud burst and say

[00:01:42] Hell I'm soaked and I'm totally bored

[00:01:46] Out there by the interstate the duplex I call home

[00:01:50] Ain't quite the quietest place on earth to catch your breath

[00:01:53] Non-stop highway sound makes backyard picnics out to lunch

[00:01:57] Fact is my next door neighbor's fine completely deaf

[00:02:02] Maybe you wish you had money

[00:02:06] Then you might think you could live

[00:02:09] Life is so brief you may think time a thief

[00:02:13] Better live for whatever it gives

[00:02:17] Pondering the future you worry

[00:02:21] Listen somehow you'll get through

[00:02:25] Then you'll look backwards and long for the things

[00:02:28] That you'll find it's then too late to do

[00:02:32] It is what it is and that's all

[00:02:36] When are you going to see

[00:02:40] Friends tell you true and your granddad did too

[00:02:43] But you won't take advice that comes free

[00:02:48] Get what you want you don't want it

[00:02:51] Not even glad while you eat

[00:02:55] Wait for your flight while the heavyweights fight

[00:02:58] And the planes try to land in the sleet

[00:03:02] It is what it is and that's all

[00:03:06] And birds can't row boats baby blue

[00:03:10] Will some fool sit stuck on the runway and say

[00:03:14] Hell it's only me this happens to

[00:03:18] It is what it is and that's all

[00:03:21] It is what it is and that's all
