Life’s Little Ups And Downs - Jerry Lee Lewis

I don't know how to tell her
That I didn't get that raise in pay today
And I know how much she wanted
That dress in Baker's window
And it breaks my heart to tell
Her she'll have to wait
Mhm cancel all the plans to celebrate
But I can take it all with a smile
And not a frown
She knows life has its little ups
And downs like ponies on a merry go round
And no one grabs a brass ring every time
But she don't mind she don't mind
She wears a gold ring
On her finger and it's mine
Those new house plans
We've had so long I guess will gather
Dust another year another year
And the daffodils are blooming
That she planted way last fall
Upon the hill and over by the gate
Lord knows I hate to say again
We'll have to wait
But you can bet that she will take it
With a smile and not a frown
You knows life has its little ups and downs
Like ponies on a merry go round
And no one grabs a brass ring
Every time but she don't mind
She don't mind
She wears a gold ring
On her finger and it's mine
She wears a gold ring
On her finger and it's mine
