Time Flies

(album: Sha-Kon-O-Hey! Land Of Blue Smoke - 2009)

I got my cup of coffee
Throw on my overalls
I grab my jacket from the nail hanging on the wall
Meet up with my buddies, I can't make 'em wait
There's a job that must be done, there's no time to waste

Time flies
Got to get it done while the gettin's good
We're up before the sun, and it's well understood
Bend over backwards, turn flips when necessary
Building something that will last, not something temporary

Time flies, hurry, hurry
Times flies, scurry, scurry
Working worry
My, time flies!

Life's a train we all must ride
We have to lay the rails
The tree of life always provides
We must use it well
Before you know it, day is done
Have to face the night
God bless us while we're sleeping
Wake us to the light!

Time flies
Got to get it done while the gettin's good
We're up before the sun, and it's well understood
Bend over backwards, turn flips when necessary
Building something that will last, not something temporary

Time flies, heads are spinning
We must land on our feet
We hope we're winning
We can't afford defeat
We are the lumber and the railmen, and we fight
To keep the progress going
And we know time flies!

Time flies, hurry, hurry
Scurry, scurry
Working worry
My, time flies!

Time flies, hurry, hurry
Scurry, scurry
Working worry
Hurry, hurry!
Scurry, scurry
Working worry
Hurry, hurry!
My, time flies!

My, time flies!
Don't it fly?
My, time flies!
