May be sometimes then ya don't
With the help of God and true friends, I've come to realize
But leave your mind alone and just get high
We'll raise our children, in the peaceful way we can
And all the war freaks die off, leavin' us alone
'Cause time goes by like hurricanes, and faster things
'Cause time goes by like pourin' rain, and much faster things
Been around here three long days, lookin' like we're dyin'
So I, ain't a wastin' time no more
Runnin' after the subway train
I still have two strong legs, and even wings to fly
'Cause time rolls by like hurricanes
Go step yourself outside and look up at the stars above
You don't need no gypsy to tell you why
It's up to you and me brother to try and try again
So, hear us now, we ain't wastin' time no more
And go on downtown, baby, find somebody to love
Well, by and by, way after many years have gone
Well, look inside yourself, and if you don't see what you want
Ya can't let one precious day to slip by
Well, Lord, Lord, Miss Sally, why are your cryin?
Meanwhile, I ain't a wastin' time no more
