Couples of guys sittin' around drinkin'
Down at the Starlight Bar
One of 'em says, you know
I've been thinking
Other one says, that won't get you too far
He says, this is your life and welcome to it
It's just workin' and drinkin' and dreams
Ad on TV says "Just Do It"
Hell if I know what that means
The secret of life is a good cup of coffee
the secret of life is keep you eye
on the ball
The secret of life is a beautiful woman
And Marilyn stares down form the
barroom wall
You and me we're just a couple of zeros
Just a couple of down-and-outs
But movie stars and football heroes
What have they go to be unhappy about?
So they turn to the bartender,
"Sam, what do you think?
What's the key tht unlocks that door?"
Sam don't say nothin'
just wipes off the bar
And he pours them a couple of more
'Cause the secret of life is in Sam's martinis
The secret of life is in Marilyn's eyes
The secret of life is in
Monday night football
Rolling Stones records and
mom's apple pies
Sam looks up from his Sunday paper
Says, boys you're on the wrong track
the secret of life is there ain't no secret
And you don't get your money back (hey)
The secret of life is gettin' up early
The secret of life is stayin' up late
The secret of life is try not to hurry
But don't wait...don't wait
The secret of life is a good cup of cooffee
The secret of life is keep your
eye on the ball
The secret of life is
to find the right woman
the secret of life is nothin' at all
(oh it's nothin' at all)
The secret of life
Couple of guys sittin' around drinkin'
Down at the Starlight Bar
One of 'em says,
you know I've been thinkin'
Other one says, that won't get you too far
That won't get you too far
