Lyrics
I've tried for a long time but I think I can't win
I can do it all better if I could do it a-gain
Wherever I'm going it's the same place I've been
Ain't it a cold, cold world
Outside it was hot but inside I was cold
The eyes of the young met the eyes of the old
And what they were thinking I'll never be told
Ain't it a cold, cold world
Then an old lady asked me 'bout the new daylight time
I said it don't matter and she said I don't mind
Then the bus driver said you still owe me a dime
Ain't it a cold, cold world
[music]
I can't get no job and I can't get no rest
I started out east but I ended up west
And I'm so glad to be here I'm sure, I would guess
Ain't it a cold, cold world
I might have to leave you, I think that's what she said
I wish I could sleep 'stead of tossing in bed
I can find myself thinking I'd rather be dead
Cause ain't it a cold, cold world
Ain't it a cold, cold world
