You know my old car needs washing
And the front yard needs a trim
And the telephone keeps ringing
And the bossman knows I know it's him
And the bills ain't gonna pay themselves
Don't matter anyway
'Cause I ain't in no hurry today
Nothing wrong when I know
Cane fishing pole and smell of early spring
Sit down in a fold up easy chair
On a quiet, shady river bank
Let the world go on without me
Wouldn't have it any other way
'Cause I ain't in no hurry today
Ain't in no hurry, I'd be a fool now to worry
About all those things I can't change
And the time that I borrow can wait till tomorrow
'Cause I ain't in no hurry today
When I must return to the cold, cold ground
Have 'em take their time when they lay their sinner down
Heaven knows that I ain't perfect, ways of little Caine
And I plan to raise a whole lot more before I hear those angels sing
Gonna get by with the Lord
But there'll be hell to pay
But I ain't in no hurry
Ain't in no hurry, I'd be a fool now to worry
About all those things I can't change
And the time that I borrow can wait till tomorrow
'Cause I ain't in no hurry, ain't in no hurry, ain't in no hurry today
