Ain't wastin' time no more

Last Sunday morning the sunshine felt like rain

The week before they all seemed the same

With the help of God and true friends I've come to realize

I still have two strong legs and even wings to fly

So I ain't a-wastin time no more

'Cause time goes by like hurricanes and faster things

Well Lord Lord Miss Sally why all your cryin'

Been around here three long days lookin' like we're dyin'

Go step yourself outside and look up at the stars above

And go on downtown baby find somebody to love

Meanwhile I ain't a-wastin' time no more

'Cause time goes by like pouring rain and much faster things

You don't need no gypsy to tell you why

Ya can't let one precious day to slip by

Well look inside yourself and if you don't see what you want

Maybe sometimes then ya don't

But leave your mind alone and just get high

Well by and by way after many years have gone

And all the war freaks die off leavin' us alone

We'll raise our children in the peaceful way we can

It's up to you and me brother

To try and try again

So hear us now we ain't wastin' time no more

'Cause time rolls by like hurricanes

Runnin' after the subway train

Don't forget the pourin' rain
