Once In a Lifetime

And you may find yourself living in a shotgun shack

And you may find yourself in another part of the world

And you may find yourself behind the wheel of a large automobile

And you may find yourself in a beautiful house, with a beautiful wife

And you may ask yourself

Well...How did I get here?Letting the days go by

Let the water hold me down

Letting the days go by

Water flowing underground

Into the blue again

After the money's gone

Once in a lifetime

Water flowing undergroundAnd you may ask yourself

How do I work this?

And you may ask yourself

Where is that large automobile?

And you may tell yourself

This is not my beautiful house

And you may tell yourself

This is not my beautiful wifeLetting the days go by

Let the water hold me down

Letting the days go by

Water flowing underground

Into the blue again

After the money's gone

Once in a lifetime

Water flowing undergroundSame as it ever was...

Same as it ever was...

Same as it ever was...

Same as it ever was...

Same as it ever was...

Same as it ever was...

Same as it ever was...

Same as it ever was...Water dissolving...and water removing

There is water at the bottom of the ocean

Under the water, carry the water at the bottom of the ocean

Remove the water at the bottom of the oceanLetting the days go by

Let the water hold me down

Letting the days go by

Water flowing underground

Into the blue again

Into the silent water

Under the rocks and stones

There is water undergroundLetting the days go by

Let the water hold me down

Letting the days go by

Water flowing underground

Into the blue again

After the money's gone

Once in a lifetime

Water flowing undergroundAnd you may ask yourself

What is that beautiful house?

And you may ask yourself

Where does that highway go to?

And you may ask yourself

Am I right?...Am I wrong?

And you may say to yourself

My God!...What have I done?!Letting the days go by

Let the water hold me down

Letting the days go by

Water flowing underground

Into the blue again

Into the silent water

Under the rocks and stones

There is water undergroundLetting the days go by

Let the water hold me down

Letting the days go by

Water flowing underground

Into the blue again

After the money's gone

Once in a lifetime

Water flowing undergroundSame as it ever was...

Same as it ever was...

Same as it ever was...

Look where my hand was

Time isn't holding up

Time is an asterisk

Same as it ever was...

Same as it ever was...

Same as it ever was...

Same as it ever was...

Same as it ever was...

Same as it ever was...

Same as it ever was...

Yeah, the twister comes
