Nothin' Ever Seems to Go My Way - Jackie Lomax

I do the best I can with no monogram

I say, who I am ain’t a happy man — today

‘Cause nothin' ever seems (nothin' ever seems) to go my way

It’s gettin' much harder to play — today

I used to waste my time thinkin' she was mine

I only read her face and not the mind behind — too late

Nothin' ever seems (nothin' ever seems) to go my way

Well, I never stashed nothin' away

And this is my rainy day

Nothin' ever seems to go my way

He gets a few spare bills, some headache pills

Tanked to the gills and the tension builds — too high

Nothin' ever seems (nothin' ever seems) to go my way

It’s got to get brighter some day

I wish it would be right away

‘Cause nothin' ever seems to go my way
