Catch 22 Lyrics

(Bob Regan/Terri Clark/Chris Waters)

A farmer on a tractor

Plowing in the field

Doing all he can to increase the yield

But the more he raises

The more the price goes down

Over at the factory

Working on the line

You do a good job and never fall behind

So your quota goes up every time you turn around

It ain't nothing new, it's called a Catch 22

Heads they win, tails you lose

It's all the same either way you choose

It's all the same either way you choose

You're damned if you don't and even if you do

It's a Catch 22

Tell a man you love him

He starts backing up

Tell him you don't and he's a lovesick pup

You try to get together

And watch it fall apart

Hey, I've been there too, what a Catch 22

Heads they win, tails you lose

It's all the same either way you choose

It's all the same either way you choose

You're damned if you don't and even if you do

It's still a Catch 22

Oh, it's a Catch 22

No matter what you do, it's a Catch 22
