Sometimes we know, sometimes we don't
   Sometimes we give, sometimes we won't
   Sometimes we're strong, sometimes we're wrong
   Sometimes we cry
  
   Sometimes it's bad when the going gets tough
   When we look in the mirror and we want to give up
   Sometimes we don't even think we'll try
   Sometimes we cry
  
   Well we're gonna have to sit down and think it right through
   If we're only human what more can we do
   The only thing to do is eat humble pie
   Sometimes we cry
  
   'Fore they put me in a jacket, and they take me away
   I'm not gonna fake it like Johnnie Ray
   Sometimes we live, sometimes we die
   Sometimes we cry
  
   Sometimes we can't see anything straight
   Sometimes everybody is on the make
   Sometimes it's lonely on the lost highway
   Sometimes we cry, sometimes we cry
  
   Gonna put me in a jacket, and take me away
   I'm not gonna fake it like Johnnie Ray
   Sometimes we live, sometimes we die
   Sometimes we cry, sometimes we cry
  
   Sometimes we live, sometimes we die
   Sometimes we cry, sometimes we cry
