Buddy Whittington Every Goodbye Ain't Gone
I've walked around this world
And you can put this this in the bank
You can't take things at face value
Cause chances are they ain't
You gotta listen to your spirit
To thine own self be true
You gotta face the fact
That what you thought was black and white
Might make you blue
Cause every shuteye ain't sleepin'
Every goodbye ain't gone
Every teardrop ain't weepin'
Every broken rule ain't wrong
Two sides to every story
A second verse to every song
Every shuteye ain't sleepin'
Every goodbye ain't gone
You can see it all on TV
All over your neighborhood
Somebody hustlin' somebody
Tryin' to sell you a bill of goods
You gotta exercise your option
To leave no stone unturned
You gotta do your best
To bypass the BS
And rest assured you don't get burned
Cause every shuteye ain't sleepin'
Every goodbye ain't gone
Every teardrop ain't weepin'
Every broken rule ain't wrong
Two sides to every story
A second verse to every song
Every shuteye ain't sleepin'
Every goodbye ain't gone
Now ignorance is no excuse
But the evidence will no doubt produce the truth
When all the dirt's been dug
That you were lyin' like a rug
Cause every shuteye ain't sleepin'
Every goodbye ain't gone
Every teardrop ain't weepin'
Every broken rule ain't wrong
Two sides to every story
A second verse to every song
Every shuteye ain't sleepin'
Every goodbye ain't gone
