Time flies by like a shot from a gun Makin hay with the devil in the new days sun Striking at the iron while the iron is hot I’ll pay my dues for the life I got
Livin for the minute and livin for the day In my own town in my own way Headin nowhere just as fast as I can Yeah I’m ridin on dunes leavin tracks in the sand
I say that’s how you die a lonely man
Die yi yi yippy yippy yippy yay leavin my tracks in the sand Die yi yi yippy yippy yippy yay goin real hard drivin at the wind I say that’s how you die a lonely man
There’s a train to Chicago and a plane to L.A. Yeah a meeting in Akron on all saints day Well it got so late, I forgot to call in Yeah, well daddy’s doin business at the bar again
I say that’s how you die a lonely man
Die yi yi yippy yippy yippy yay leavin my tracks in the sand Die yi yi yippy yippy yippy yay goin real hard drivin at the wind I say that’s how you die a lonely man I say that’s how you die a lonely man
Kids are always asking, when daddy’s getting hooooome Momma’s getting angry dinners cold upon the stove She takes all the kids awaaay!!! I get the life of a lonely man I get the life of a lonely man I get the life of a lonely man I get the life of a lonely man
Die yi yi yippy yippy yippy yay goin real hard drivin at the wind I say that’s how you die a lonely man
