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 the dress in Baker’s window

And it breaks my heart to see her have to wait

And cancel all her plans she made to celebrate

But I can count on her to take it with a smile and not a frown

She knows that life has its little ups and downs

Like ponies on a merry-go-round

And no one plants the grass green every time but she don’t mind

She wears a gold ring on her finger and it’s mine

The new house plans we’ve had so long

I guess will gather dust another year

And the daffodils are blooming that she planted way last fall

Upon the hill and over by the gate

And Lord knows I hate to say again we’ll have to wait

But you can bet that she’ll just take it with a smile and not a frown

She knows that life has its little ups and downs

Like ponies on a merry-go-round

And no one plants the grass green every time but she don’t mind

She wears a gold ring on her finger and I’m so glad that it’s mine

She wears a gold ring on her finger and I’m so glad that it’s mine

That it’s mine

I’m so glad it’s mine, I’m so glad it’s mine

I’m so glad it’s mine, I’m so glad it’s mine

I’m so glad it’s mine, I’m so glad it’s mine
