I'm gonna leave you 'cause it's high time
Somebody else is beating my time
But you'll never hear me cry
'Cause long as you live, you'll be dead if you die
You had your fun and now you rush off
You're giving me an awful brush-off
You'll be sorry by and by
'Cause long as you live, you'll be dead if you die
Oh, yes, oh, yes
Take the good advice I give
Oh, yes, oh, yes
As long as you live, you'll be dead if you die
If you die, you'll be dead just as long as you live
So here's a final word of warning
You're gonna wake up dead some morning
Then you'll cry, "How 'bout that guy?
I do believe he wasn't telling a lie"
So take it from me, as hard as you try
As long as you live, you'll be dead if you die
I'm gonna leave you 'cause it's high time
Somebody else is beating my time
But you'll never hear me cry
'Cause long as you live, you'll be dead if you die
You had your fun and now you rush off
You're giving me an awful brush-off
You'll be sorry by and by
'Cause long as you live, you'll be dead if you die
Oh, yes, oh, yes
Take the good advice I give
Oh, yes, oh, yes
As long as you live, you'll be dead if you die
If you die, you'll be dead just as long as you live
So here's a final word of warning
You're gonna wake up dead some morning
Then you'll cry, "How 'bout that guy?
I do believe he wasn't telling a lie"
So take it from me, as hard as you try
As long as you live, you'll be dead if you die
