"Ninety-Nine Years" lyrics
"Ninety-Nine Years"
Honey, I've known all the time you don't love me so much
But I would go right out of my mind if I lost your touch
You say if I don't want you around to just let you know
But it took a while to get up the nerve to tell you to go
I'm giving you ninety-nine years to pack up your clothes
You've got just ninety-nine years to hit the road
If you don't stop running 'round and start treating me nice
I'm giving you ninety-nine years to get up and get out of my life
Well, I don't know just what I'd do if you ever left
Think I might think about taking a gun and shooting myself
I guess you might think I've been a fool depending on you
I'm giving you ninety-nine years to tell me we're through
I'm giving you ninety-nine years to pack up your clothes
You've got just ninety-nine years to hit the road
If you don't stop running 'round and start treating me nice
I'm giving you ninety-nine years to get up and get out of my life
I'm giving you ninety-nine years to get up and get out of my life
