"In The Next Life" lyrics - STEEP CANYON RANGERS

Once I had a lover
Who never held back
Once I had another
Who wanted all I had
It took a few years
To remember them well
To leave my tears
Right where they fell

[Chorus:]
Maybe in the next life
Maybe I'll get it right
Maybe in the next life
Baby, give me one more try
And I'll wait my turn
I've still got karma to burn

Somewhere in a past life
I must've been a real saint
Hey, lucky me
Born with money in the bank
And to my future self
I'm sorry in advance
But I'm feeling too good now
To worry 'bout a second chance

[Chorus:]
Maybe in the next life
Maybe I'll get it right
Maybe in the next life
Baby, give me one more try
And I'll wait my turn
I've still got karma to burn

It's too early to call
It's too late to call sober
When you were out in the woods
Did you hear me fall over
Falling on your quiet place
Wrecking the scene
Turning all your time away
Into some strange dream

[Chorus:]
Maybe in the next life
Maybe I'll get it right
Maybe in the next life
Baby, give me one more try
Maybe in the next life
Maybe I'll get it right
Maybe in the next life
Baby, give me one more try
And I'll wait my turn
If it's not too late to learn
I've still got karma to burn
