Same Old Thing Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It don't matter where you have been
The people try to do you in
Every day 'til dawn
There's some thievin' goin' on

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, oh no
Hurt me so

[Chorus]
Just the same old thing
Just the same old thing
No matter how much love you try to bring
Just the same old thing

[Verse 2]
You got a callous heart
From being torn apart
Now you labor every day
Love life drifts away

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, oh no
Hurt me so
[Chorus]
Just the same old thing
Just the same old thing
No matter how much love you try to bring
Just the same old thing

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
