While the Getting's Good Songtext
von Mountain Heart

Like a stone I′ve heard 'em say
I only come to roll away
You can try and hold me down
Tomorrow I won′t be around
They tell me I was born to lose
Hey give me something I can use
I don't play those kind of games
I'm leaving town ain′t taking names
And I can′t make you understand
What I do the way I am
I tried to change but never could
I'm getting mine while the getting′s good
Who are you to say I'm wrong
When you ain′t the rock I'm standing on
I ain′t got a thing to prove 'Cause you ain't me and I ain′t you
When I′m gone say what you will
If you got so much time to kill
You won't see me wasting mine
I′ll be somewhere down the line
And I can't make you understand
What I do the way I am
I tried to change but never could
I′m getting mine while the getting's good
And I can′t make you understand
What I do the way I am
I tried to change but never could
I'm getting mine while the getting's good
Hey I′m getting mine while the getting′s good
