The Flow Lyrics

[Verse 1]
She said we were way too young
When the drinks were cheap and the fights were fun
It ain't over yet but it's a long time done
He said I'm only 43 and the guy in the mirror doesn't look like me
I know you'd be happy with who I used to be

[Pre-Chorus]
But he's gone, gone, gone
And I'm movin' on, so long

[Chorus]
You gotta roll with the flow 'til the flow don't roll no more
You gotta know when to hold, when to fold, when to hit the road
And when to stay the course
You gotta learn to bend or the diffеrence in a little rain and a ragin' storm
You gotta roll with thе flow 'til the flow don't roll no more
Then roll on out the door

[Verse 2]
I've been swimmin' right upstream
Wonderin' how much brass is left on that ring
And when is last call really your last drink
I thought you go as long as it takes
But how many fools can one drink make
With so many cracks in a heart, what's one more break
[Chorus]
You gotta roll with the flow 'til the flow don't roll no more
You gotta know when to hold, when to fold, when to hit the road
And when to stay the course
You gotta learn to bend or the difference in a little rain and a ragin' storm
You gotta roll with the flow 'til the flow don't roll no more
Then roll on out the door

[Bridge]
If you need me, I'm gone, gone, gone
I'm movin' on, so long

[Chorus]
You gotta roll with the flow 'til the flow don't roll no more
You gotta know when to hold, when to fold, when to hit the road
And when to stay the course
You gotta learn to bend or the difference in a little rain and a ragin' storm
You gotta roll with the flow 'til the flow don't roll no more
Then roll on out the door

[Outro]
Go on and roll on out the door

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 [?]
