This world keeps turning, turning around
This world keeps turning me upside down
I can't do nothing to slow it down
This world keeps turning and turning around

Everything you have today soon can be gone away
Yesterday I had no sorrow
But here today and gone tomorrow
Here today and gone tomorrow

This world keeps turning, turning around
This world keeps turning me upside down
I can't do nothing to slow it down
This world keeps turning, turning around

People can be so cruel
They'll cheat you and then treat you like a fool
They'll drag your dreams through the dust
Till you don't know who to trust, I don't know who to trust

The more I learn, the less I know
Got so far to go, I got so far to go

This world keeps turning, turning around
This world keeps turning me upside down
I can't do nothing to slow it down
This world it keeps turning, turning around
This world it keeps turning, turning around
This world it keeps turning, turning around
