And you're having a ball
You've got the world on a string
You think you've got everything
But you've got nothing at all
'Cause one day, you'll wake up
On the other side of the hill
Oh, if Mother Nature don't stop you
Father time will
The pace that you're setting
You know it's too fast
Tomorrow, you'll have no future
And there's nothing worth
Thinking of from your past
You're just breaking yourself
Robbing your own till
If Mother Nature don't stop you
Father Time sure will
Listen, you're heading
In the wrong direction
You're running from true love
And affection
I'm taking life seriously
To you, it's just a thrill
You better watch Mother Nature
Or Father Time surely will
Father Time sure will
You're way on top now And you're having a ball You've got the world on a string You think you've got everything But you've got nothing at all 'Cause one day, you'll wake up On the other side of the hill Oh, if Mother Nature don't stop you Father time will The pace that you're setting You know it's too fast Tomorrow, you'll have no future And there's nothing worth Thinking of from your past You're just breaking yourself Robbing your own till If Mother Nature don't stop you Father Time sure will Listen, you're heading In the wrong direction You're running from true love And affection I'm taking life seriously To you, it's just a thrill You better watch Mother Nature Or Father Time surely will Father Time sure will Explain Request ×
