Time Lyrics


My poor Mom was in labor 12 hours and I was born around 6:00 AM
For the time it took her to bring me in this world, you'd've thought the girl was gonna have twins
I'd be a day older if that doctor hadn't told her I'd be better off if I came late
She said fine and that gave him plenty of time to get in 18 holes that dayChorus:
Yeah time, time, everything takes time
From grabbin' hold of life to turnin' it loose
And in the time that went by while I sang you those lines
We all lost a minute or twoThere's a 15 year old ridin' shotgun down the road, he can't wait to get behind the wheel
And a grandma in the kitchen washin' dishes and wishin' she still knew how 16 feels
Every year we get older, all the months seem shorter, kinda like weeks, weeks seem like days
Yeah, the hours fly by when you're havin' a good time, but they don't stand still when you ain'tRepeat ChorusTime only moves forward every minute leanin' towards that day
Our hair is gone or gray
We all make it and we use it, we waste it and abuse it
While the clock just laughs in our faceRepeat ChorusYeah time, time, we got nothin' but time
And there ain't a dad-gum thing about it we can do
And in the time that went by while I sang you those lines
We lost another minute or two
So, let's not lose another minute or two

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Ray Scott refers to two musicians. One is a contemporary country musician. The other was a rockabilly star from Indiana who produced classic rockabilly music in the 1950's, often with his band, the Demens or his other band, the Four Recorders. Ray Scott (Henry Raymond Scott) died in 1999. The contemporary Ray Scott grew up outside of Semora, North Carolina. He was influenced by the farming community around him and by the country outlaw movement (Johnny Cash, Merle Haggard, Kris Kristofferson, Waylon Jennings, and Willie Nelson).
