"Settled Down" lyrics

"Settled Down"

These excuses are useless,
We've run aground again.
Another day in the gutter,
Making one for every year we've spent together.

My baby used to sing all night,
Now she's sound asleep.
She settled down with a ramblin man,
And found the gentle of love.

Well make time, and take time,
But maybe I'm no good,
'Cause I have showed her these lies
Long enough to know now that I should.

My baby used to sing all night,
Now she's sound asleep.
She settled down with a ramblin man,
And found the gentle of me.

Moments, just fleeting times
With little wings of gold.
Remind us of how real we find
True love in every sign.

We're gettin' older:
My baby used to sing all night,
Now she's sound asleep.
She settled down with a ramblin man,
And found the gentle of me.
