Текст песни That's How It Went, All Right - Bobby Darin

Listen, all you people
Listen, though it's hard
I'm gonna give you a word of advice
I ain't gonna say it twice
'Cause it's definitely not nice
Okay, okay
But all I got to say is
Stay in your own backyard

Now put your drinks on the table
While I spin you a fable
To illustrate my point

A once was a girl with traveling eyes
Fell outta love with a hundred guys
Once was a guy who swore he'd get her
Swore on the very day he met her
She was a gas, she was a groove
But she had to be on the move

The more she strained, the more he tried
To holder her harder, and keep her tight
Would not let her get outta sight
Watched her day and watched her night

And that's how it went, all right, all right
That's how it went, all right, all right
That's how it went, all right, all right
That's how it went, all right

She didn't wanna stick to the letter
She had eyes for anything better
Any old place where the grass was greener
Any old place where the air was cleaner
She got bored and he got meaner
Watched her day and night

And that's how it went, all right, all right
That's how it went, all right, all right
That's how it went, all right, all right
That's how it went, all right

Then came a guy across the street
Head of a gang with a different beat
Then came a day when he looked over
Man, in a minute, something drove her
She had to go, she had to get
But her lover said, "No, not yet!"

She tried to run, she saw the knife
He lost his head, and don't you know she lost her life
He brought her down just like a paper kite
Watched her dress turn red from white

And that's how it went, all right, all right
That's how it went, all right, all right
That's how it went, all right, all right
That's how it went, all right
