| Daddy worked down in the coal mine
|
| And mamma worked hard at the mill
|
| Well I know it sounds like an old line but
|
| I tried and I always will
|
| Now that I’ve grown up to be a man
|
| The only thing I’ve learned is don’t give a damn
|
| My folks are getting older, and their time ain’t long
|
| Well they’re both getting old and their time ain’t long
|
| Time ain’t long
|
| Time ain’t long
|
| Time ain’t long
|
| I never went much for schooling
|
| Maybe that’s just because
|
| I couldn’t take all their fooling
|
| Good boy, I never was
|
| Ain’t got all that much to say
|
| If you need to pass the time a day
|
| Spend it with me because my time ain’t long
|
| Well you know you can spend your time with me
|
| Time ain’t long
|
| Time ain’t long
|
| Time ain’t long
|
| Well, people we all been screaming
|
| About what is right or wrong
|
| I used to spend my time dreaming
|
| Now all I do is sing my song
|
| If you need some liberty
|
| Be anything that you wanna be
|
| But get moving soon, because your time ain’t long
|
| Well you better move soon because your time ain’t long
|
| Time ain’t long
|
| Time ain’t long
|
| Time ain’t long
|
| I believe my time, believe my time
|
| I believe my time ain’t long
|
| I believe my time, believe my time
|
| Believe my time ain’t long
|
| I believe my time, believe my time
|
| Believe my time ain’t long
|
| I believe my time, believe my time
|
| Believe my time ain’t long
|
| Time ain’t long
|
| Time ain’t long
|
| (You can’t stop it)
|
| Time ain’t long
|
| (You can’t stop it)
|
| Time ain’t long
|
| (You can’t fight it)
|
| Time ain’t long
|
| (You can’t fight it)
|
| Time ain’t long
|
| (You can’t take it)
|
| Time ain’t long
|
| (You can try to stop it)
|
| Time ain’t long
|
| (You can’t steal it)
|
| Time ain’t long |
