Clifford T. Ward – Contrary lyrics
You are consistent, I am lackaday
You are sufficient, I'm in disarray
You give me pleasure, I bring you heartache
You give me light when all is dark and lonely
You're my concession, I am contrary.

You are exception, I am more the rule
You are discretion, I am more the fool
You show me patience, I take advantage
An' leave you lost an' on your own an' lonely
You are forever, I'll come crashin' down.

Instrumental

You throw me line when I'm clutchin' straws and
You lift me up when I am down an' lonely
You're my concession, I am contrary.

You are consistent, I am lackaday
You are sufficient, I'm in disarray
You give me pleasure, I bring you heartache
You give me light when all is dark and lonely
You're my concession, I am contrary.

You're my concession, I am contrary.
You're my concession, I am contrary.
You're my concession, I am contrary.
(and fade).
