Long Long Time To Get Old

Lyrics

The eagle's flyin' tomorrow
 Mosquito bitin' me today
 I ride the bus to Toronto
 Highway Two, all the way
 I take a walk along Yonge Street
 Good times are bought and sold
 Remember this, children
 If the good Lord's willin'
 There's a long, long time to get old
 (Uh huh)
 I aim to bike to the hometown
 My liquor store burned down
 My old girlfriend a-ridin'
 Way on the east end of town
 I heard the laughter when she passed me
 Then I knew I'd been told
 She said remember this, children
 If the good Lord's willin'
 There's a long, long time to get old
 Been through some lean times, mama
 I watched a fat friend go
 Seen a wreck on this highway
 Oh, you be drivin' home slow
 So, lay some truth on you, young ones
 Give 'em something to hold
 Because remember this, children
 If the good Lord's willin'
 There's a long, long time to get old
 (Well all right...)
 ♪
 Well, she sings you a story
 You can tell her song
 Layin' down by the river
 Oh, summer slippin' along
 With her eyes closed dreamin'
 Sun shines some bold
 Remember this, children
 If the good Lord's willin'
 There's a long, long time to get old
 
 The eagle's flyin' tomorrow
 Mosquito bitin' me today
 I ride the bus to Toronto
 Highway Two, all the way
 I take a walk along Yonge Street
 Good times are bought and sold
 Remember this, children
 If the good Lord's willin'
 There's a long, long time to get old
 Remember this, children
 If the good Lord's willin'
 There's a long, long time to get old
