Same old story, same old song 
Goes all right, till it goes all wrong 
Now you're going, then you're gone 
Same old story, same old song 
 
Same old story, same old song 
Goes all right, till it goes all wrong 
Now you're going, then you're gone 
Same old story, same old song 
 
One hand will take, one hand will give 
That's all we know and that is how we live 
One day hello and the next day goodbye 
And everyone does their part 
 
Same old story, same old song 
Goes all right, baby, till it goes all wrong 
Now you're going, then you're gone 
Same old story, same old song 
 
One builds you up, one tears you down 
To some you're a saint and to others you're a clown 
What can you do? I just go on, I see it through 
And hold on to what is left of you 
 
Same old story, same old song 
Goes all right, till it goes all wrong 
Now you're going, then you're gone 
Same old story, same old song 
 
Used to drive a Cadillac, had a house on the hill 
And money by the bank, carry on by bubble bath 
With the finest clothes, never looked at the tags 
Till I went too crazy and it went all bad 
Lost all the fortune that I thought I had 
Thought I made it out by the scenes, I'm right back 
Back to hard living, back to hard times 
Back to working hard for the nickel n dime 
Back to the city with the dirt and crack 
Got me feeling like I wanna go commit some crimes 
Same old story with the same old grime 
Guess the thoughts I had, had never come to shine 
Same old story each and every time 
Each and every time 
Same old story each and every time 
 
One builds you up, one tears you down 
To some you're a saint and to others you're a clown 
What can you do? I see it through 
And hold on to what is left of you 
 
Same old story, same old song 
Goes all right, until it goes all wrong 
Now you're going, then you're gone 
Same old story, baby, same old song 
 
Same old story, same old song 
Now you're going and then, baby, 
Goes all wrong 
Now you're going and then you're gone 
Same old story, same old song
