Living Today   O'Reilly

  You can quit while you’re winning

The wheel’s still a-spinning

You can take your chips and calmly walk away

You don’t have to play

At the last intersection you changed your direction

But you’ve still got the feeling

That perhaps you made a mistake

That’s a risk you take

You’ve got your head full of plans for the future

And a heart full of wounds from the past

Your walking round in a world of confusion

‘Staid of livin’ today

You set your sights on a hard-hearted woman

But she turns her head when she sees you coming along

Seems you got it wrong

And all you need is a sweet little girl

To change everything in your world

But oh, no! That’s not how it goes!

You can count your blessings

Or just sit guessing

What in the world is gonna happen to you?

What ya gonna do?

Is it a matter of chance or just a matter of luck

Or did something, somehow just get stuck in my way?

Is that all you can say?
