My Century |
[00:03.71] |
Zaac Pick |
[00:07.09] |
|
[00:13.91] |
hands like leather |
[00:15.60] |
from working in the weather on the family farm |
[00:20.58] |
though I was still young |
[00:22.07] |
when we moved into the city where the factories are |
[00:27.16] |
it was years later when the radio playing |
[00:30.54] |
said the war had been won |
[00:33.88] |
and we were going home |
[00:37.11] |
I was the lucky one |
[00:39.60] |
|
[00:41.19] |
walking into the middle of a mystery |
[00:47.81] |
though I don't know if I'm ever going to get to see |
[00:53.58] |
my century, my century |
[01:06.13] |
|
[01:08.46] |
well I seen it all |
[01:09.76] |
before planes and malls |
[01:11.90] |
use to send letters, now the telephone calls |
[01:15.23] |
the carriage and cart, to the freeways and cars |
[01:18.72] |
even done better, sent a man to the stars |
[01:21.75] |
and we keep moving on |
[01:24.99] |
what are we running from? |
[01:27.33] |
|
[01:28.92] |
walking to the middle of a mystery |
[01:35.24] |
though I don't know if I'm ever going to get to see |
[01:41.31] |
my century, my century |
[01:52.21] |
|
[01:56.14] |
if you find a lover, then treat her like no other till the day that you die |
[02:02.56] |
and when you get to my age |
[02:04.50] |
I hope the lines on your face are something you wouldn't hide |
[02:09.68] |
but these days you got no patience to wait |
[02:12.71] |
so busy tryin' to get old |
[02:16.44] |
and I wonder what for |
[02:19.98] |
I wonder what for |
[02:21.87] |
|
[02:57.04] |
can't see the skin for the bones |
[02:58.69] |
not many people I know live to a hundred years old |
[03:04.36] |
my friends have moved on, all my sisters are gone and I'm ready to go |
[03:10.73] |
and when my funeral comes, can you bring your guitar |
[03:13.96] |
and play my favorite songs |
[03:17.75] |
play my favorite songs |
[03:22.32] |
|
[03:24.56] |
and then he walked out into the middle of the mystery |
[03:31.73] |
talking about going home |
[03:38.30] |
and I don't know if I'm ever going to get to see |
[03:47.65] |
my century |
