The Way It Goes Lyrics

Cali said she saw you walking with a rose in your hand 
Cali said you weren't walking alone 
You're about as pretty as the picture of the flowers 
You drew on my chemistry notes 
Boy I really loved you oh well 
That's the way it goes 
Cali said she saw you lying with a hole in your head 
Cali said you weren't lying no no you weren't lying alone 
You're about as pretty as the picture of the flowers I drew on your 
suicide note 
Boy I really loved you oh well
That's the way it goes 
Everyone's dying to meet you 
Everyone's dying to know 
Mama said you could be my antidote, well 
You're about as pretty as the picture of the flowers 
They drew on your pale headstone 
God I really loved you oh well 
That's the way it goes
