Lifetime Lyrics

Lifetime lyrics





I called my mama yesterday

to wish her happy birthday

she said, Babe, your mama's getting old.

and I'm glad to be alive today.

You know, I'm 10 years cancer free

And I thank the good Lord everyday

But Marie's got it bad,

And honey, Patsy's passed away



She Said

A lifetime ain't no time at all

A lifetime ain't no time at all



As I listened to my mama's voice

I felt a chill pass right thru

I've seen the virus take the boys

I got friends that been sick too

I told her bout how Michael died

with his friends around him everyday

how we all took turns there by his side

and we helped him disappear that way.



a lifetime ain't no time at all.

a lifetime ain't no time at all.



Mama said well ain't we a mess,

Child we're full of life

and scared of death.

It must be hell to watch your friends die young,

but honey getting old now there's some fun

Life'd mean nothing if we didn't die

Laughter empty if we didn't cry

It's all the way it's supposed to be

It moves fast it's hard to see



cause a lifetime ain't no time at all

cause a lifetime ain't no time at all.

a lifetime ain't no time at all.
