I get to the party, but I'm too late And I got stood up on my very first date I listen to country and everybody goes rock I get to the dance floor, that's when the music stops It doesn't matter what I do, I just can't seem to win But here I go again [Chorus] And I say, "Hey, that's the story of my life I had a good plan but it didn't go right Oh no, I'm overdrawn, I check my account and the money's all gone Why me? I don't know what to think, I finally get aboard and the whole boat sinks Seems to be the story of my life I pick a slot machine and lose it all again But when I walk away, someone else always wins She finally calls me, I forget my phone And when I'm starving, you know the kitchen's closed It doesn't matter what I try, it all ends up the same And here I go again [Chorus] Just when it seems like it's turnin' around for me There's always something that ends up happening I found my car, but I can't find my keys I get to the party a little too late And once again the music starts to play [Chorus] The story of my life The story of my life That's the story of my life That's the story of my life
