"Live While You Can" lyrics

"Live While You Can"

One day I met an old man, he said to me
"You gotta live while you can, son. You gotta believe
'Cause when you're old and you're dying, it's no fun for you
You gotta live while you can 'til your days are all through."

And I don't know why the cold wind blows, man
I don't know about all I've read
I just know that our days are numbered and
This is what he said

"I got a time bomb ticking in my head, ticking in my head."
"I got a time bomb ticking in my head, ticking in my head."

One day I met a young man, he said, "Get out of my way
I've got some living to do and there's no time to delay
'Cause when you're old and you're dying, it's no fun for you
You gotta live while you can 'til your days are all through."

And I don't know why the cold wind blows, man
I don't know about all I've read
I just know that our days are numbered and
This is what he said

"I got a time bomb ticking in my head, ticking in my head."
"I got a time bomb ticking in my head, ticking in my head."

"I got a time bomb ticking in my head, ticking in my head."
"I got a time bomb ticking in my head, ticking in my head."

So let's go!

And I don't know why the cold wind blows, man
I don't know about all I've read
I just know that our days are numbered and
This is what he said

"I got a time bomb ticking in my head, ticking in my head."
"I got a time bomb ticking in my head, ticking in my head."

"I got a time bomb ticking in my head, ticking in my head."
"I got a time bomb ticking in my head, ticking in my head."

"It's ticking in my head."
