Way She Goes

Way She Goes [Verse 1] I’ve known her for a lifetime She never stayed a week She’d show up with a suitcase And trouble on her feet She’d turn a dollar into twenty Turn a stranger to a friend Then disappear before the party Could ever really end [Pre-Chorus] You can count all your blessings Using all your fingers and your toes Sunshine in a thunderstorm She’s casting rainbows [Chorus] That’s the way that she goes That’s the way that she goes She’ll paint a little heaven Then vanish with the smoke I still leave the porch light on Though everybody knows She’s just a ghost when she goes That’s the way that she goes [Verse 2] Some folks call her Lady Luck Some say she’s a rolling stone She never liked the fences much She never called one place her home I’ve seen her bless the broken-hearted I’ve seen her leave the rich man cold She don’t belong to anybody That’s just something that I’ve learned [Pre-Chorus] You can count all your blessings Using all your fingers and your toes Sunshine in a thunderstorm She’s casting rainbows [Chorus] That’s the way that she goes That’s the way that she goes She’ll paint a little heaven Then vanish with the smoke I still leave the porch light on Though everybody knows She’s just a ghost when she goes That’s the way that she goes [Bridge] And every now and then I see her headlights down the road For a little while the whole world shines Like somebody fixed what’s broke She never swore she’d stay forever Hell, she never promised me tomorrow But every time she comes around She leaves a story I can borrow [Final Chorus] That’s the way that she goes That’s the way that she goes She’ll paint a little heaven Then vanish with the smoke If she comes around tomorrow Well, I’ll put the coffee on She’s just a ghost when she goes But Lord, I love it when she shows That’s the way that she goes [Outro] That’s the way that she goes… That’s the way that she goes…
