That’s The Way It Is Johnny Cash

[Verse 1]
Remember back in school we learned the golden rule
Do unto others as you'd have done to you
You're supposed to love me as much as I love you

[Chorus]
It's a shame that isn't the way it is

[Verse 2]
Lovers in a movie on that great big screen
He treats her like she's a queen, she treats him like a king
Wouldn't that be nice if life is lived that way

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
I'd like to start each morning with good morning dear
And end each night with the goodnight kiss
But all I have is your memory with me laying here

[Chorus]

[Verse 4]
A love song tells a story of a good love going bad
Then paints a pretty pictures of that same love coming back
I wish that I could sing it, I wish that I could paint it
