|
Sitting on the front porch, watching the children play |
|
Old man rocking waiting for judgment |
|
(Day) |
|
A fresh chew of tobacco and a glass of lemonade |
|
The sun beats down but he's safe in the shade |
|
Ooh, just a memory |
|
As a memory fades |
|
Mama's in the kitchen been working there all day |
|
The old man comes home as the children come into play |
|
He works all day at the corner lumberyard |
|
Just to bring home a dollar, he works real hard all day |
|
Ooh, just a memory |
|
As a memory fades |
|
Don't stand around waiting for another day |
|
Don't stand around forgetting yesterday |
|
Don't live for tomorrow 'cause it might be the last train |
|
The last train |
|
Old man's on the sofa with the news on the TV |
|
He'll sit there all night that's the way it's been, the way it'll be |
|
Can't you see mama cuddles up while the kids are in the bed |
|
They could of had it all but they chose love instead, some say |
|
Ooh, just a memory |
|
As a memory fades |
|
Don't stand around forgetting yesterday |
|
Don't live for tomorrow 'cause it might be the last train |
|
The last train |
|
The way it goes |
|
The seasons only change |
|
I stand around waiting for another day |
|
It all passes me by and by and by |
|
As it goes where it goes |
|
The seasons going by, there's a change |
|
Don't stand around waiting for another day |
|
Don't stand around forgetting yesterday |
|
Don't live for tomorrow 'cause it might be the last train |
|
The last train |
