The Partridge Family, Shirley Jones and David Cassidy - Roller Coaster

I recall when I was young
My papa said don't cry
Life is full of ups and downs
Like a roller coaster ride
There'll be times you'll get so scared
Rollin' down these hills
But hang on tight with all your might
'Cause you don't know what you feel

You go up, down, all around
On a cycle that's never endin'
You got on this train when you were born
And the wheels just keep on spinnin'
Like a roller coaster (like a roller coaster)
It keeps going faster (it keeps going faster)
Time going past you (time going past you)
Thrills comin' at ya (thrills comin' at you)
Hey, up down, all around
Like a roller coaster

I left home at just sixteen
Thought I'd have some fun
Hitched a ride on a diesel truck
Headed for Washington

And now I know now what my poppa meant
When he told me heart to heart
Son, you'll find out soon enough
Life is just an amusement park

You'll thrill, like a kid
You'll get so excited
You hang on tight with all your might
As if your hearts ignited

Like a roller coaster (like a roller coaster)
Keeps going faster (keeps going faster)
Time going past you (time going past you)
Thrills comin' at ya (thrills comin' at you)
Yeah, up down, all around
Like a roller coaster

Up, down, all around, all around, all around
Up, down, all around
On a cycle that's never endin'
You got on this train when you were born
And the wheels just keep on spinnin'

Like a roller coaster (like a roller coaster)
Keeps going faster (keeps going faster)
Time going past you (time going past you)
Thrills comin' at ya (thrills comin' at you)
Yeah, up down, all around
Like a roller coaster

Like a roller coaster (like a roller coaster)
Keeps going faster (keeps going faster)
Time going past you (time going past you)
Thrills comin' at ya (thrills comin' at you)
Like a roller coaster (like a roller coaster)
Keeps going faster (keeps going faster)
Time going past you (time going past you)
Thrills comin' at ya (thrills comin' at you)
Yeah, up down, all around
Like a roller coaster
