Oh, you're on the top now, baby, but don't nothing stay the same
I said you're up on the top now, baby, but don't nothing stay the same
Every once in a while, baby, lady Luck deals another hand

Are you calling me your pal now, baby, when I used to be your man
Are you calling me your pal now, when I used to be your man
You're flying real high now, baby, go on and raise your sand

Oh, you're up on the top now, baby, but don't nothing stay the same
I said you're up on the top now, baby, but don't nothing stay the same
Every once in a while, lady Luck deals another hand

Oh, I realize now, baby, your kind of love wasn't true
Oh, I realize now, baby, your kind of love won't do
What could have been, baby, hey, now has done fell through
