Sometimes It Just Isn't Fair
It's a Trio, Me, Myself and I
Story behind the song
I was at a bar on a lake and saw a couple arguing on a peer. That was enough to inspire this song.
Lyrics
Sometimes It Just Isn’t Fair
(Jim Russ)
She pushed me off of the peer
And said I think you’ve had enough beer
I said girl you’re sure gonna catch hell
When I get out of here
Well she took hold of my hand
And she yanked my feet right out of the sand
She said this ain’t the way it should be
Ain’t the way it was planned
(1st Chorus)
We were gonna do this we were gonna do that
She wanted to run and silly old me
There I just sat thinking I was where it was at
Driving down the road in our car
Everything we hoped for wasn’t that far
Buying that house on the hill
Was like wishing on a star
Picking out curtains for the windows
I couldn’t get into that you know how that goes
A man’s gotta do what a man does
“Cause that’s all he knows 2x
(2nd Chorus)
We were gonna go here we were gonna go there
I wanted to please her, she just thought
I didn’t care, sometimes it just isn’t fair
(Repeat 1st and 2nd Chorus)
