Time

                                  My poor Mom was in labor 12 hours 

And I was born around 6:00 AM

For the time it took her to bring me in this world, 

You'd've thought the girl was gonna have twins

I'd be a day older if that doctor hadn't told her 

I'd be better off if I came late

She said fine and that gave him plenty of time 

To get in 18 holes that day



[Chorus]

Yeah time, time, everything takes time

From grabbin' hold of life to turnin' it loose

And in the time that went by while I sang you those lines

We all lost a minute or two



There's a 15 year old ridin' shotgun down the road, 

He can't wait to get behind the wheel

And a grandma in the kitchen washin' dishes 

And wishin' she still knew how 16 feels

Every year we get older, all the months seem shorter, 

Kinda like weeks, weeks seem like days

Yeah, the hours fly by when you're havin' a good time, 

But they don't stand still when you ain't



[Chorus]



Time only moves forward every minute leanin' towards that day

Our hair is gone or gray

We all make it and we use it, we waste it and abuse it

While the clock just laughs in our face



[Chorus]



Yeah time, time, we got nothin' but time

And there ain't a dad-gum thing about it we can do

And in the time that went by while I sang you those lines

We lost another minute or two

So, let's not lose another minute or two
