Lyrics
Time Moves On, Years fly past,
Mind’s near gone, Body’s fading fast
Wake up in the morning, wanna stay in bed.
Buzzards are circling over head
But I ain’t gone yet, cause I ain’t through,
Life don’t quit, until you do
When all is done, and all is said.
I may be old, but I ain’t dead
(chorus)
I got songs to sing, gifts to give,
dreams to dream, life to live
I could just give up and fade away,
but I never been one to act my age
Laying with my lover, late at night in bed
She says, you may be old, but you ain’t dead
They say kids today, ain’t got no respect, that’s the same damn thing, my daddy
done said
We’re all the same, I just seen more stuff
I will grow old, I will not grow up
(chorus)
One day I’ll stop, and walk away
One day I’m gone, but not today
I’ll keep on going, tell it ain’t no fun
I may be old but I ain’t done
(chorus)
