On the Level

My life it didn't quite turn out
 The way I always dreamed about
 My pockets never filled with gold
 My story has remained untold
 But I ain't giving up
 On my half empty cup
 No I ain't giving up
 I've seen the end of many life long dreams
 I've made mistakes but never learned a lesson
 Till I met a girl with sunshine eyes
 She showed me how to live on the level
 She said until you learn to trust yourself
 You're never gonna be on the level
 On the level
 My sails they never filled with wind
 Good luck it hasn't quite kicked in
 Battalions never stormed the gate
 My backup always came to late
 But how much do you wanna bet
 That you ain't seen nothing yet
 How much do you wanna bet
 That you ain't seen nothing yet
 I've seen the end of many life long dreams
 I've made mistakes but never learned a lesson
 Till I met a girl with sunshine eyes
 She showed me how to live on the level
 She said until you learn to trust yourself
 You're never gonna be on the level
 On the level
 Money, money, money, money can change you
 My life it didn't quite turn out
 The way I always dreamed about
 My pockets never filled with gold
 My story has remained untold But I ain't giving up
 On my half empty cup
 No I ain't giving up
 On my half empty cup
 I've seen the end of many life long dreams
 I've made mistakes but never learned a lesson
 Till I met a girl with sunshine eyes
 She showed me how to live on the level
 She said until you learn to trust yourself
 You're never gonna be on the level
 On the level
