I picked up the paper this morning And read all the daily blues The world is one big tragedy I wonder what I can do About all the pain and injustice
About all of the sorrow We´re living in a danger zone The world could end tomorrow But I´m not gonna let it bother me tonight I´m not gonna let it bother me tonight Tomorrow I might go as far as suicide But I won´t let it bother me tonight Life on the street is a jungle A struggle to keep up the pace I just can´t beat that old dog eat dog The rats keep winnin´ the rat race But I´m not gonna let it bother me tonight I´m not gonna let it bother me tonight The world is in an uproar and I see no end in sight But I won´t let it bother me tonight I´m not gonna let it bother me tonight Tomorrow I might go as far as suicide
But I won´t let it bother me tonight Lord, Lord, Lord We got nothing but trouble I´ve done all I can do today So bartender pour me a double, right now But I´m not gonna let it bother me
