It's About Time - Guy Clark

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
