Bitter With The Sweet Lyrics - Carole King

BITTER WITH THE SWEET 

by Carole King 

SOmetimes I'm tired and I wonder 

what's so all-fired important 

About being someplace at some time 

Oh, but I don't really mind 

Cause I could be on Easy Street 

and I know that 

You've got to take the bitter with the sweet

I guess it gets to everyone, 

you think you're not having fun 

And you wonder what you're doing 

playing the games you play 

Hey, well, it's true what they say 

If ou want to feel complete 

don't you know that 

You've got to take the bitter with the sweet 

A friend of mine once told me 

And I know he knows all about feelin' down 

He said everything good in life 

you've got to pay for 

But feelin' good is waht you're 

paving the way for 

Photos 

So, don't let it get you down, my friend 

though it seems the blues will never end 

On this you can depend, they always do 

And I can tell you that it's true 

it's a feeling that can't be beat 

And you've got to do it 

You've got to take the bitter with the sweet
