Clint Black - No Time To Kill Lyrics
Theres no time to kill between the cradle and the graveFather time still takes a toll on every minute that you saveLegal tenders never gonna change the number on your daysThe highest cost of livins dyin, thats one everybody paysSo have it spent before you get the bill, theres no time to killIf wed known ten years ago today would be ten years from nowWould we spend tomorrows yesterdays and make it last somehowOr lead the cheers in someone elses game and never learn to playAnd see the rules of thumb are all the same that measure every dayThe grass is green on both sides of the hill, theres no time to killNo time to kill, even Ive said it and probably always willBut I can look ahead and see that time aint standin stillNo time to kill but time to change the kind of hurry Ive been inAnd quit this work and worry lookin back at where Ive beenIf you dont look ahead nobody will, theres no time to killIf we had an hour glass to watch each one go byOr a bell to mark each one to pass, wed see just how they flyWould we escalate the value to be worth its weight in goldOr would we never know the fortunes that we had til we grow oldAnd do we just keep killin time until theres no time to killRepeat chorus twiceNo time to killNo time to killNo time to kill
