Rafferty, Gerry - Get It Right Next Time Lyrics
Out on the street I was talkin' to a man
He said "there's so much of this life of mine that I don't understand"
You shouldn't worry, I said, that ain't no crime
Cause if you get it wrong you'll get it right next time (next time)
When you're standing in the crossroads every highway looks the same
After awhile you get to recognize the signs
So if you get it wrong you'll get it right next time (next time)
Life is a liar yeah life is a cheat
It'll lead you on and pull the ground from underneath your feet
No use complainin', don't you worry, don't you whine
Cause if you get it wrong you'll get it right next time (next time)
You gotta grow, you gotta learn by your mistakes
When you believe there's no mountain you can climb
And if you get it wrong you'll get it right next time (next time)
Next time, hmmmmm

Rafferty, Gerry Get It Right Next Time Comments
Love the way the sax player and the Guitarist gel, in a nice way they remind me of muppits
I've just turned 50. Remember this great song by these great musicians from my youth. 3 failed relationships, 4 beautiful kids. This is my song! 😉
Talent is very hard to come by .These guys are RAW!! Its a pleasure to listen to musical geniuses.
1970s were great.
I'm saddened by the lack of this type of songwriting in our modern world. They've lost the plot. All sounds the same. Gerry was a genius!
Real music played by real musicians. Wat more can i say.
Awesome musician from a fellow Paisley boy 👍
The Drummer had a big beard before it became fashionable.
About forty years before,
Kudos.
A real credit to my home town Paisley
these guys look so 70's lol
This was back in the day when everyone in the band was magnificent at their craft. I love watching videos of Gerry and seeing him playing a different instrument in each one. He was such a blessing to this world. I can't believe I've only known about him for a year or so.
When music had musicians, and musicians were talented.
Heaven must have needed the number one singer on earth Rip gerry 🙏🙏
*"You gotta die a little everyday just trying to stay awake..."*
Guys a genius end of
Amazing!
789 music knuckleheads voted thumbs down on this great tune? Truly Beatlesque...
Come back for another fix.
Love it. You can't not Love it. Good memories.
I can never just listen to this once.
Musical genius!! So calm, cool, and collected in doing such a fabulous song....
I could listen to the intro as background music all day.
Stunning music way ahead of its time.
Love these songs. Takes me right back to when life was good 😊
Music of 2020 look and learn
Those who came of age in the 70's know what good music is.....if you were not growing up or alive then, take a listen and learn something.
....In this video Gerry Rafferty always reminds me of a young Bill Oddie....
Ok, Everyone born in the 50’s or 60’s put on your headphones,turn this song on, close your eyes and think back when this song came out. Suddenly you will be transported back to that age, that summer, that grade etc... try it!,,
top track
Art Bell brought me here.
The best songs have already been written ,, absolute classic
A very cool song with more to it than the classic Baker Street. This looks like a live performance, every lip-sync drumbeat and guitar lick. "When you`re standing at the crossroads every highway looks the same"! Love it. Amazing x
Ah.. miss the time musicians made real music and played their instruments!
A long suicide....RIP now Gerry..
Gerry was king shit of fuck mountain
💋😎💋Gerry is so intense, super handsome, and sexy;
we just want to kiss his lips. His sound is far out ! !
Brilliant!!
I can't hear this song enough~!! Gerry was and is Special=RIP Buddy~!! To the Dislikes=go back down to your MaMa's basement and shut the hell up~!!
Fantastic
wow.. that was awesome...
He had wisdom plus talent and merged the two nicely!
song of hope
I LOVE IT when I just happen on a great song I hadn't heard for 40 years.
Idealistically, one of the best concepts ever. Mr. Electronic...Gerry, Gerry, you great bad boy!
One word: Classic! Remembering when this was released.
Well do you prefer this or rap music from today I rest my case .👍👍👌
Some Steve Miller would be nice
Its been said that Mr Rafferty was underrated, I dont thinks so. His hits still spans generations today, young and old still listen. When an artist dies people develop an curious interest. His music will last beyond this century. And I still raise a dram to him for his talents weather it be on YouTube or other well known platforms.
779 dislikes? As we say up here on Tyneside- absolute doylems
The saxophone sounds to me a lot like Richard Elliott. It isn't him by any chance, is it?
scotlands finest musician ever ...rip gerry
good good
This is my go to song when I feel confused and down. It helps me a lot.
"Chipping Norton born, Chipping Norton bred, strong in the arm and thick in the head" I grew up where this classic was recorded. And LOVE Chipping Norton!
Looks sort of like Duck Dunn playing the bass.
I can play this 100 x over + can never ever, ever get sick of it❤️❤️❤️❤️💋💋💋💋
To think I grew up in the same scheme as this chap FP. Hello random scroller, Hope your doing all right.
1979. When EVERYBODY looked like Jeff Lynne.
RIP, you Paisleyan.
I never heard this one before. I'm listening to it over and over again. Awesome! It's motivational.
Gerry Rafferty was one of the UK'S most underappreciated singer/songwriters
Jeff Lynne look alike playing bass guitar..
FANTASTICOOOOOO!!!
GERRY RAFFERTY. I AM FROM THE YEAR 400 AD AND THIS COOL DUDE GERRY RAFFERTY IS PLAYING ....GET IT RIGHT NEXT TIME IN MY COSMIC STELLA GALATICCA SPACECRAFT. IT IS SO COOL. TONY AMORE.
This guy was way more than just the stereotype casted Baker Street singer. It's criminal and disgrace he is known way too much as only the Stealers Wheel Stuck In The Middle With You and Baker Street singer.
This song and Baker Street evoke so many feelings and memories of the 1970's....fantastic.
775 morons
Youtube..the jukebox in the sky...they should pay me for that slogan...
I got loads more.😎
414.. interesting.
Top man,Top band....Fond memories.
just magic P.M
771 people need their Internet cut off.
artistry at its best..group of talented individuals free flowing with the groove of the universe. bless mates may you live forever!!!!
2020 and still enjoying this !! I finally got it right.
😍😍😍😍😍😍
So scary but I love it, fab, R.I.P ❤️
pure class

@BERNICE HENRY yay! Go auzzies
Me 2020 and beyond
Hell ya!
@han36solo hell yes mate all the time 👍👍👍
Aye still here
The most inspirational song , ever! RIP Jerry.
Its amazing that footage still remains.
I think this needs to be the Aspie national anthem. Yeah, what it describes is true for everyone, but it speaks especially strongly to the unique challenges those with Asperger's face. We're thrown into this life clueless, without a guidebook on how to human and unable to tune into the signals that most people use to guide them through society on a basic, subconscious level. We gotta figure it all out as we go, from incomplete information. As the song says, "When you're standing in the crossroads every highway looks the same". How could we help but go wrong? But as he says, "after a while, you learn to recognize the signs so if you get it wrong you'll get it right next time". It's a challenge, but it can be done. We'll get it wrong a lot. But if we keep trying, keep learning, one of those times we get it wrong will be the last one before we get it right next time.
wrote about a year ago...Rafferty still rules..and always will !
Nice. So laid back, just muso's playing their music....
I discovered Gerry late but thank God for all these quality videos~!! I never realized he had made so many great performances with quality music and like this song he got it right this time~!! RIP GERRY
Who is the hot girl at 4:09? o_O
Why doesn’t this get enough airplay?.
The man had soul rest in peace JR
Orribly Higgins .bet u love controlling this space ..grrrr ..merry Christmas ur arse x
Man, such a great song! A gem for many more to discover.
I have hundreds of albums but no way to play them anymore so You Tube is my go-to place to hear all my favorites. This is one of them.
Umm yeah, this is the tune you want playing when you walk in.. slowly
if i could only like this more...
Legend 😁
a fucking good tune. not the bullshit we hear today.
Absolute Perfection
forgot how good this is- thanks again YT...
No drama just real music
Here I am back again. Really need to pick some other childhood issues 😂🧐🤪🎶
Horrible compressed youtube audio though :(
A nice bit of Scottish funkiness, I feel sorry for those who react in a negative way to this.
