It's About Time Lyrics

Guy Clark It's About Time

Hear that old tune come driftin' down the hall
Trying to put a stop to clock on the wall
Free flowin' free flown Lord mama how that old thief time carries on
Take off your old coat and let down your hair
Kick off them boots hon I don't care it's only time and only time will tell
Looks a chance with no reason not to take
Looks like our dance while the record player fakes it
Hold on King's X I think I'll be a captain standing on a burning deck
So come waltz you around this old room with me
As if we were some old pair of high degree round and round again
Don't let old fickle stickle catch you keepin' time with a friend
