lyrics

Somehow you smile when times are tough
And keep on a-goin’ where others give up
You’re not denying
Some days can be trying
You smile and you pick yourself up
Oh I wish I was wired like you
I wish I was wired like you

Is it God given or how you were raised?
How come the hard times have not been engraved?
You see the rose
And you don’t see it’s thorns
I love this in you, just take care
Oh I wish I was wired like you
Oh wish I was wired like you

Like you, you

Maybe there’s a wire that’s missing in me
Well I’ll try to fix it if you give me the key
You say life’s for living
We make the decision
Whether to laugh or to cry
Oh I wish I was wired like you
Oh I wish I was wired like you
I said I wish I was wired like you
Oh I wish I was wired like you
