lyrics
Well life is a game you think I'm losing
Spending my time singing and a boozing
Here's something that you don't know
Well you take nothing with you when you go
I might look fifty by the age of thirty-five
but at least I can say I am alive
You spend your time just a chasin' that dime
but honey, I ain't dead yet.
And when did we become so old?
Worrying til our little tiny hearts they grow... so cold
Whoever said it first, yeah they said it best
"Money can't buy you happiness"
I know you've got all them bills to pay
but there's gotta be a better way
and I sold my hopes of security
for a raggy ol' dress and some banjo keys
You spend your time just a chasin' that dime
You forget what it means to be free.
And when did we become so old?
Worrying, pulling our hair out, grinding our teeth
Waiting for that day we finally feel safe...
Well even a king with all the riches he's got
could end up buried beneath a parking lot
You leave the world just the way you came
and I doubt anyone will know your name
So you can keep on chasin' that money, honey
But I ain't dead yet!
