When I was a boy in school

Learning the Golden Rule

I had a crush on my teacher

She was a beautiful creature



When I look at kids today

I think of how we used to play

She taught all us boys and girls

This little song about the real, real world

She said now class



If it will it will, and if it won't it won't

If it does it does, yeah if it don't it don't

Some days are good some bad you know

That's the way it goes



Give the wheel of life a spin, see where it lands

Let your spirit fly free, enjoy yourself while you can

Don't be in a hurry and don't ever make plans



'Cause if it will it will, and if it won't it won't

If it does it does, hey if it don't it don't

Life is not always so smooth

And Murphy's Law is gonna rule



You know the river's gonna flow, wherever it wants to go

And if the rain wants to fall, you can't stop it at all

No one has ever had control over this world, don't you know?



'Cause if it will it will, and if it won't it won't

(If it will it will, if it won't it won't)

If it does it does, and if it don't it don't

(If it does it does, if it don't it don't)

Life is not always so smooth

And Murphy's Law is gonna rule



'Cause if it will it will, and if it won't it won't

(If it will it will, if it won't it won't)

If it does it does it does, if it don't it don't

(If it does it does, if it don't it don't)

No one has ever had control over this old world don't you know, ain't it so?



(If it will it will, if it won't it won't)

(If it does it does, if it don't it don't)
