The Secret Of Life - Remastered
Couple of guys, sittin' around drinkin'
Down at the Starlight bar
One of 'em says "you know I've been thinking"
Other one says "that won't get you too far"
He says "this is your life, and welcome to it"
"It's just workin' and drinkin' and dreams"
"Ad on TV says "just do it""
"Hell if I know what that means"
The secret of life is a good cup of coffee
The secret of life is keep your eye on the ball
The secret of life is a beautiful woman
And Marilyn stares down from the barroom wall
"You and me, we're just a couple of zeros"
"Just a couple of down-and-outs"
"But movie stars and football heroes"
"What have they got to be unhappy about?"
So they turn to the bartender "Sam, what do you think?"
"What's the key that unlocks that door?"
Sam don't say nothin', just wipes off the bar
And he pours them a couple more
'Cause the secret of life is in Sam's martinis
The secret of life is in Marilyn's eyes
The secret of life is in Monday night football
Rolling Stones records and mom's apple pie
Sam looks up from his Sunday paper
Says "boys, you're on the wrong track"
"The secret of life is there ain't no secret"
"And you don't get your money back"
Hey
The secret of life is gettin' up early
The secret of life is stayin' up late
The secret of life is try not to hurry
But don't wait
Don't wait
The secret of life is a good cup of coffee
The secret of life is keep your eye on the ball
The secret of life is to find the right woman
The secret of life is nothin' at all, oh
Oh, it's nothin' at all
The secret of life
Couple of guys sittin' around drinkin'
Down at the Starlight bar
One of 'em says "you know I've been thinking"
Other one says "that won't get you too far"
"That won't get you too far"
