If you cant be hurt, you cant be happy
How you gonna laugh if you cant cry
If you cant be hurt, you cant be happy
You cant be happy unless you try
Life is a gamble, its true
For every highway theres a rocky road, too
And youre gonna stub your toe
Somewhere down the line, yeah
But chalk it up to living
If you can take what this life is giving
Thats a very good sign, yeah
Baby, I know you been beat
Youve had too much bitter and not enough sweet
But if you tried it with me
Maybe youll be glad
Its up to you to choose, now
If you want a chance to win or lose
Now dont you play the game scared, yeah
