Lyrics

[00:17.298] "Once In A Lifetime"
[00:18.857] And you may find yourself living in a shotgun shack
[00:21.750] And you may find yourself in another part of the world
[00:25.593] And you may find yourself behind the wheel of a large automobile
[00:30.520] And you may find yourself in a beautiful house, with a beautiful wife
[00:35.053] And you may ask yourself, "Well... how did I get here?"
[00:41.586] Letting the days go by, let the water hold me down
[00:46.025] Letting the days go by, water flowing underground
[00:49.851] Into the blue again after the money's gone
[00:53.748] Once in a lifetime, water flowing underground
[00:58.028] And you may ask yourself, "How do I work this?"
[01:01.716] And you may ask yourself, "Where is that large automobile?"
[01:06.303] And you may tell yourself, "This is not my beautiful house"
[01:10.571] And you may tell yourself, "This is not my beautiful wife"
[01:14.281] Letting the days go by, let the water hold me down
[01:18.207] Letting the days go by, water flowing underground
[01:22.203] Into the blue again after the money's gone
[01:26.326] Once in a lifetime, water flowing underground
[01:31.023] Same as it ever was, same as it ever was
[01:35.038] Same as it ever was, same as it ever was
[01:39.155] Same as it ever was, same as it ever was
[01:43.172] Same as it ever was, same as it ever was
[01:47.543] Water dissolving and water removing
[01:50.534] There is water at the bottom of the ocean
[01:53.748] Under the water, carry the water
[01:56.928] Remove the water at the bottom of the ocean
[02:03.223] Letting the days go by, let the water hold me down
[02:07.113] Letting the days go by, water flowing underground
[02:11.597] Into the blue again, into the silent water
[02:15.332] Under the rocks and stones, there is water underground
[02:19.301] Letting the days go by, let the water hold me down
[02:23.542] Letting the days go by, water flowing underground
[02:27.722] Into the blue again after the money's gone
[02:31.931] Once in a lifetime, water flowing underground
[02:36.384] And you may ask yourself, "What is that beautiful house?"
[02:40.453] And you may ask yourself, "Where does that highway go to?"
[02:44.124] And you may ask yourself, "Am I right? Am I wrong?"
[02:48.116] And you may tell yourself, "My God! What have I done?"
[02:52.307] Letting the days go by, let the water hold me down
[02:56.705] Letting the days go by, water flowing underground
[03:00.790] Into the blue again, into the silent water
[03:04.648] Under the rocks and stones, there is water underground
[03:08.801] Letting the days go by, let the water hold me down
[03:12.784] Letting the days go by, water flowing underground
[03:16.976] Into the blue again after the money's gone
[03:21.297] Once in a lifetime, water flowing underground
[03:25.699] Same as it ever was, same as it ever was
[03:29.308] Same as it ever was and look where my hand was
[03:34.615] Time isn't holding up, time isn't after us
[03:38.181] Same as it ever was, same as it ever was
[03:42.393] Same as it ever was, same as it ever was
[03:45.801] Same as it ever was, same as it ever was
[03:52.817] Letting the days go by, same as it ever was
[03:54.805] Here a twister comes, here comes the twister
[03:59.018] Same as it ever was, same as it ever was
[04:02.204] Same as it ever was, same as it ever was
[04:06.365] Once in a lifetime, let the water hold me down
[04:10.738] Letting the days go by
