PAUL SIMON - Learn How to Fall lyrics

Words & music by Paul Simon

You got to learn how to fall

Before you learn to fly

And mama, mama it ain't no lie

Before you learn to fly

Learn how to fall

You got to drift in the breeze

Before you set your sails

It's an occupation where the wind prevails

Before you set your sails

Drift in the breeze

Oh and it's the same old story

Ever since the world began

Everybody got the runs for glory

Nobody stop and scrutinize the plan

Nobody stop and scrutinize the plan

You got to learn how to fall

Before you learn to fly

The tank towns they tell no lie

Before you learn to fly

Learn how to fall
