TIME
[ country ]


    Wake up in the mornin’ to another full day
    So much work to do, so many bills to pay
    There’s not enough hands in these hours of time
    In this fast-pace human race assembly line

    Time oh good times, where do you go?
    So many fields to plow, many seeds to sow
    Like a wild spring flower in an untamed field life fades away
    Before it does, wanna take a little time
    Make time pay

    There was once a time when time stood still
    Had a whole life ahead, plenty of time to kill
    But time has it’s own way of gainin’ on us
    An' before we learn to live we return to dust

    Time oh good times, where do you go?
    So many fields to plow, many seeds to sow
    Like a wide-open prairie summer sunset life fades away
    Before it does, wanna take a little time
    Make time pay

    Between sands of time we’re measured in a blink of God’s great eye
    But tough times here don’t compare to the pleasure in the sweet bye ‘n bye

    Time oh good times, where do you go?
    So many fields to plow, many seeds to sow
    That deep-down desire to make life matter soon fades to gray
    Before it does, wanna take a little time
    Make time pay

    Time, oh good times, where do you go?
    Time, oh good times, where do you go?

    Yeah, before I have to stand up and answer on judgment day
    Want’a take a little time, sweet time
    Make time pay
