give it a whirl

Singer:split enz

i saw you there by the side of the road

you wore long faces and long overcoats in the rain

waiting for buses to carry you home

winter wind rushes and rattles your bones

it's a shame

i can see no sign of action in your eyes

there's a thrill you'll never know if you never try

remember taking a ride on a ferris wheel

and really enjoying yourself

bye bye blues

remember taking a bet on a race

you faced the future with a smile on your face

win or lose

no

i don't mean to preach

i don't mean to patronize

there's a thrill you'll never know if you never try

why don't you give it a

give it a

give it a whirl

why don't you give it a

give it a

give it a whirl

why don't you give it a

give it a

give it a whirl

why don't you give it a

give it a

give it a whirl. i saw you there by the side of the road

you wore long faces and long overcoats in the rain

waiting for buses to carry you home

winter wind rushes and rattles your bones

it's a shame

no

never give up

giving in

it's like kissing goodbye

there's a thrill

that you'll never know

if you never try

why don't you give it a whirl.
