And if you can't go home
It's alright, it's O.K.
And if you're feelin' cold
It's alright, brighter days
And if they cut you out
It's alright either way
But if they put you down
It's alright, you're O.K.
And if it gets too hard
It's alright, there's a way
And if it seems too far
It's alright on the train
And if you lost that song
It's alright in your head
And if you don't feel strong
It's alright, stay in bed
And if the words don't come it's cause it's hard
To pinpoint every little pain in your heart
And all the dirty little jokes that they play
Everyday, everyday
See I've been shot down, I've been mad
It does me no good to think what I might've had
The good is never good unless you give it away
So make it stay, make it stay
And if you can't go home
It's alright, there's a way
And if you don't belong
It's alright, it's O.K.
And if you can't be found
It's alright, you'll be someday
And if I'm not around
It's alright, I'm O.K.
And if the words don't come it's cause it's hard
To pinpoint every little pain in your heart
And all the dirty little jokes that they play
Everyday, everyday
See I've been shot down, I've been mad
It does me no good to think what I might've had
The good is never good unless you give it away
So make it stay, make it stay
And if the thing you're all hung up on's gone bad
Just get yourself together and get out while you can
Forget all the dirty little jokes that they play
And be glad we're not that way
See we've been shot down, we've been mad
It does us no good to think what we might've had
The good is never gone unless you give it away
So make it stay, make it stay
And if you can't go home
It's alright, it's O.K.
And if you're feel alone
It's alright, better days
And if they cut you out
It's alright either way
But if they put you down
It's alright, you're O.K.
