C’est La Vie                                        Larry Dunn ‘96

VERSE           There outta be a law if you work all day

You can take home some of your hard earned pay

Work all month further in debt

Wonder what it takes to get ahead

                        I got this job tried to save a buck

                        Figured I’d have it ‘fore the year was up

                        Well the taxman made out the best

                        And my landlord took what was left

CHORUS        C’est la vie     dough ray me

                        That’s the way it goes

                        Can’t take it with you brother that’s for sure

                        C’est la vie so c’est la vie

VERSE           Juggle and sidestep, borrow a dime

                        Dance with the devil if it gets me mine

                        Tryin’ to find a way to make a good thing last

                        And just gettin’ by gettin’ nowhere fast

                        Save it up that’s the trick they say

                        Save it up for a rainy day

                        Well lately when it rains it pours

                        And a dollar doesn’t go that far no more

CHORUS       C’est la vie      dough ray me

                        That’s the way it goes

                        Can’t take it with you brother that’s for sure

                        C’est la vie so c’est la vie

BRIDGE         Oh…oh…oh   Say…ay…ay…ay

                        That’s the way it goes

SOLO

VERSE           If I had one single wish

                        I’d wish that I was idle rich

                        But wishing never paid a bill

                        And this job I’ve got just barely will

CHORUS       C’est la vie      dough ray me

                        That’s the way it goes

                        Can’t take it with you brother that’s for sure

                        C’est la vie so c’est la vie

                        C’est la vie      dough ray me

                        That’s the way it goes

                        Can’t take it with you brother that’s for sure

                        C’est la vie so c’est la vie        c’est la vie, c’est la vie

                        C’est la vie so c’est la vie
