"Flip Ya Flip" lyrics - NILS LOFGREN

Flip ya flip buddy you can do it
Flip ya flip lift your pretty head, hold it high
Sure the world keeps getting tougher
But so are you... darlin' just you try

It can happen when you're six, it could hit age twenty-nine
Never too young or old, could happen anytime
It can make you feel rwo hundred years old
It's weight that no one should have to hold
You don't want a free ride
You just want to share a light that burns inside

Flip ya flip buddy you can do it
Flip ya flip lift your pretty head, hold it high
Flip ya flip sure the world keeps getting tougher
Flip ya flip but so are you... darlin' just you try

The world will make you feel like you missed your time
Just don't forget they're scared and lonely too
And all that guilt about fulfillment being a crime
Down inside you know it just ain't true
It's tough to be the good one but trying your best
Don't mean bein' number one

Flip ya flip buddy you can do it
Flip ya flip lift your pretty head, hold it high
Flip ya flip sure the world keeps getting tougher
Flip ya flip but so are you... darlin' just you try

Flip ya flip you will have your share of heartaches
Flip ya flip and life will surely seem unfair
Flip ya flip but when it comes to hurtin'
Flip ya flip know you ain't alone out there

Flip ya flip buddy you can do it
Flip ya flip lift your precious dreams, hold them high
Flip ya flip sure the world keeps getting tougher
Flip ya flip but so do you darlin' just you try

Flip ya flip you will have your share of heartaches
Flip ya flip and life will surely seem unfair
Flip ya flip but when it comes to hurtin'
Flip ya flip know you ain't alone out there
