We're always on the outside
On the outside always looking in
We never know how fortunes are made
For the sun, when it shines, finds us still in the shade
We're always on the ebb tide
But we'll keep on trying 'til we win
For we know some day we're gonna be on the inside
Instead of the outside always looking in
On the outside always looking in
We never know how fortunes are made
For the sun, when it shines, finds us still in the shade
We're always on the ebb tide
But we'll keep on trying 'til we win
For we know some day we're gonna be on the inside
Instead of the outside always looking in
