You lost your color when you painted the town Paintin' by the numbers You headed for the lobby, but you never came down Is it any wonder? You end up sittin' in a second hand store On display in a window Wind up sittin' in the bottom of a drawer Any way the wind blows So you burned your bridges and headed downstream Never know until you try Spent your fortune on a river boat queen Then the river ran dry You end up sittin' on a sand bar Down to a handful of treasures Nother shot of gold won't get you very far When you got forever Any way the wind blows Any way the wind blows Any way the wind ..... And so you keep on following directions until Pretty soon you're passed it Guess you shoulda known better, and still It was fun while it lasted You end up sittin' in a second hand store On display in a window Wind up sittin' in the bottom of a drawer Any way the wind blows Any way the wind blows Any way the wind blows Any way the wind blows
