Salute (a Lot More Livin` To Do) Lyrics

Listen mister I won't waste your time

 I hope all the mistakes you made were a lot like mine

 Lovin' girls too much sometimes they made you cry

 Maybe we've got more livin' to do with a lot less pain

 Here, let's drink to you

 

 These are the words I knew would break the ice

 I held my hand out and he shook it twice

 It seemed to me like I'd been here before

 Deja vu, familiar voice 

 And the salute of my choice

 

 Salute gentlemen of days gone by

 Ladies of leisure and of flashing eye

 May some romantic fool turn on your light

 As for me I'm in between

 All that I can do is dream

 

 You got a lot more livin' to do

 And a lot more lovin' too

 When you make it through the night with no end in sight

 And the dawn peeks through

 You got a lot more livin' to do

 

 Salute nightingales upon the tide

 Brothers of the cloth tonight who must be tried

 May all of your martinis be forever dry

 As for me I'm in between

 All that I can do is dream

 

 You got a lot more livin' to do

 And a lot more lovin' too

 When you make it through the night with no end in sight

 And the dawn peeks through

 You got a lot more livin' to do

 And a lot more lovin' too

 You got a lot more livin' to do

 And a lot more lovin' too
