Very Short Time Lyrics

It's easy to see that we've just a very short time So why don't we just go to the hill and climb? We'll go up just as high as John T. Booker got low Yeah, singin' the songs that don't rhyme Carryin' those pennies that do shine Laughin' at the minutes that fall behind in a very short time
Yeah, a tadpole's cuter than a topwater ever could be And I betcha neither one ever had a lifeguard like me Ain't nobody drowned since I got here, I been lookin' after tadpoles Watchin' their legs that will grow, wonderin' where they're gonna go In a very short time
Well, it's easy to see that we've just a very short time Yeah, nobody thinks about it until it's very far behind
Then they got to know where every second has gone They keep singin' them songs that do rhyme Carryin' those pennies that refuse to shine Cryin' for the minutes that fell behind in a very short time
It's easy to see that we've just a very short time So why don't we just go to the hill and climb? We'll go up just as high as John T. Booker got low Yeah, singin' the songs that don't rhyme Carryin' those pennies that do shine Laughin' at the minutes that fall behind in a very short time
