Lyrics One of Life's Little Mysteries - Tom Petty , The Heartbreakers

Go to work in the morning
Try and make a buck
Do everything you're told
And you're still outta luck
It's one of life's little mysteries

You get a little sun
You get a little rain
Get a man and a woman
You get a little pain
It's one of life's little mysteries

Tell me why when I try
Just as hard as I can
I end up with nothin'
Once again

You get yourself a dog
You get yourself a cat
Watch 'em chase each other
Around the laundromat
It's one of life's little mysteries

Tell me why when I try
Just as hard as I can
I end up with nothin'
Once again

Do all the things you should
You try to make a buck
You work a whole lifetime
You're still out of luck
It's one of life's little mysteries

Little mysteries
Little mysteries, ooh
