On a Wing and a Prayer

All through life 
you take chances all the time 
situation, do or die 
all frustration, no reply 
till you die 
life never treats you kind 
it's problems, fill your mind 

(Chorus) Life isn't fair 
when you're going nowhere 
on a wing and a prayer 
life isn't fair 
when you're going nowhere 
on a wing and a prayer 
no one said it would be fair 

It's our fate 
life's full of give and hate 
no place for a mistake 
no chance for those who beg 

But you're going nowhere 
on a wing and a prayer
