Lyrics Wasted Words - The Allman Brothers Band

Wasted Words

Last Sunday morning
The sunshine felt like rain
Week before
They all seemed the same
With the help of God and true friends
I come to realize
I still had two strong legs
And even wings to fly
And oh I, ain’t wastin time no more
'Cause time goes by like hurricanes
And faster things
Lord, lord Miss Sally
Why all your cryin'?
Been around here three long days
You’re lookin' like you’re dyin'
Just step yourself outside
And look up at the stars above
Go on downtown baby
Find somebody to love
Meanwhile I ain’t wastin' time no more
'Cause time goes by like pouring rain
And much faster things
You don’t need no gypsy to tell you why
You can’t let one precious day slip by Look inside yourself
And if you don’t see what you want
Maybe sometimes then you don’t
But leave your mind alone and just get high
Well by and by Way after many years have gone
And all the war freaks die off
Leavin' us alone
We’ll raise our children
In the peaceful way we can
It’s up to you and me brother
To try and try again
Well, hear us now, we ain’t wastin' time no more
'Cause time goes by like hurricanes
Runnin' after subway trains
Don’t forget the pouring rain
