When I was young, 
I could not wait,
to play my hand 
and tempt the fates;
that time was keeping.

Those younger days 
I never knew,
all the things 
I would grow into;
while time was sleeping  
(time was sleeping)

I never knew
time was sleeping  
(time was sleeping)
(time was sleeping)

Now I'm older
and life is set
You roll the dice 
you place your bet
while time is grieving  
(time is grieving)
(time is grieving)

Now as body ages
I barely breathe
still, I wonder
what the day will bring
as time is leaving 
(time is leaving )
(time is leaving)


When I was young, 
I could not wait,
to play my hand 
and tempt the fates;
that time was keeping.

Oh time was keeping (time is leaving)

Time was keeping (time is leaving)

Till the day I'm leaving (time was keeping)
Oh time was keeping (time is leaving)

Time was keeping (time is leaving)

Time was keeping
Time was keeping (time is leaving)

Till the day I'm leaving (time was keeping)

Time was keeping

The Day I'm Leaving (Lyrics in description)

As soon as the moon comes up
me and the boys are going into town.
Oh, we’re gonna cuss and fight,
we’ll probably stay up way past midnight,
and throw our weight around.

Because the day is finally over
and the docks are nearly empty.
Worked my fingers to the bone,
tonight, I don’t want to be alone,
and I’ve got blues to share aplenty.

Let the time just pass us all by.
Let us all have a girl on the side.
While my wife may be my honey,
And surely get all my money,
baby, tonight before we are through,
I am giving all my heartaches to you.

While my wife may be my honey,
And surely get all my money,
baby, tonight before we are through,
I am giving all my heartaches to you.

Because the day is finally over
and the docks are nearly empty.
Worked my fingers to the bone,
tonight, I don’t want to be alone,
and I’ve got blues to share aplenty.

Let the time just pass us all by.
Let us all have a girl on the side.
While my wife may be my honey,
And surely get all my money,
baby, tonight before we are through,
I am giving all my heartaches to you.

giving all my heartaches to you
giving all my heartaches, 
baby, tonight before we are through,
I am giving all my heartaches to you.

As we drown all our sorrows,
you know, we’ll all be dead by tomorrow,
so, I'll leave all my heartaches with you.

While my wife may be my honey,
And surely get all my money,
baby, tonight before we are through,
I am giving all my heartaches to you.

While my wife may be my honey,
And surely get all my money,
baby, tonight before we are through,
I am giving all my heartaches to you.

All My Heartaches (Lyrics in description)
