Ou're sleeping all your moments away
I'm counting every breath that you take
You've been snoozing 20 years and lengthening that beard
You whittled a squirrel for me
And counted lemons on your tree
And every time I turn around and have given up for good
You say, "Hey, it'll be alright"
I said, "Hey, I'm alright"
Every time I turn around and have given up for good
You're haunted by the things that you've seen
I know they give you terrible dreams
We all know you'll wake up soon and rattle off that dust
You can spot a hawk a mile away
Cursing all those old blue jays
But every time I turn around and have given up for good
You say, "Hey, I'm alright"
You said, "Hey, I'm alright"
Every time I turn around and have given up for good
Hey, let's go cruise the J
I'll take you away, I'll take you away
Can't fill any more plates, move any more chairs
It's been too many years, it's been too many years
