My father died a year ago today |
| [00:22.29] |
The rooster started crowing when they carried Dad away |
| [00:29.50] |
There beside my mother, in the living room, I stood |
| [00:36.44] |
With my brothers and my sisters, knowing Dad was gone for good |
| [00:43.35] |
Well, I stayed at home just long enough to lay him in the ground |
| [00:50.57] |
And then I caught a plane to do a show up north in Detroit town |
| [00:58.37] |
Because I'm older now and I've got no time to cry |
| [01:13.17] |
I've got no time to look back, I've got no time to see |
| [01:21.01] |
The pieces of my heart that have been ripped away from me |
| [01:28.34] |
And if the feeling starts to coming, I've learned to stop 'em fast |
| [01:35.93] |
'Cause I don't know, if I let 'em go, they might not want to pass |
| [01:42.48] |
And there's just so many people trying to get me on the phone |
| [01:50.54] |
And there's bills to pay, and songs to play, and a house to make a home |
| [01:57.90] |
I guess I'm older now and I've got no time to cry |
| [02:13.75] |
I can still remember when I was a girl |
| [02:21.18] |
But so many things have changed so much here in my world |
| [02:26.78] |
I remember sitting on the front yard when an ambulance went by |
| [02:35.15] |
And just listening to those sirens I would break down and cry |
| [02:41.90] |
But now I'm walking and I'm talking, doing just what I'm supposed to do |
| [02:50.96] |
Working overtime to make sure that I don't come unglued |
| [02:57.29] |
I guess I'm older now and I've got no time to cry |
| [03:11.81] |
I've got no time to look back, I've got no time to see |
| [03:19.36] |
The pieces of my heart that have been ripped away from me |
| [03:26.63] |
And if the feeling starts to coming, I've learned to stop 'em fast |
| [03:34.88] |
'Cause I don't know, if I let 'em go, they might not want to pass |
| [03:41.02] |
And there's just so many people trying to get me on the phone |
| [03:49.23] |
And there's bills to pay, and songs to play, and a house to make a home |
| [03:56.72] |
I guess I'm older now and I've got no time to cry |
| [04:11.61] |
Now I sit down on the sofa and I watch the evening news |
| [04:18.78] |
There's a half a dozen tragedies from which to pick and choose |
| [04:26.50] |
The baby that was missing was found in a ditch today |
| [04:33.38] |
And there's bombs a'flying and people dying not so far away |
| [04:39.83] |
And I'll take a beer from the 'frigerator and go sit out in the yard |
| [04:47.75] |
And with a cold one in my hand, I'm gonna bite down and swallow hard |
| [04:55.19] |
Because I'm older now and I've got no time to cry |
| [05:10.21] |
I've got no time to look back, I've got no time to see |
| [05:18.00] |
The pieces of my heart that have been ripped away from me |
| [05:25.10] |
And if the feeling starts to coming, I've learned to stop 'em fast |
| [05:32.64] |
'Cause I don't know, if I let 'em go, they might not want to pass |
| [05:39.23] |
And there's just so many people trying to get me on the phone |
| [05:46.92] |
And there's bills to pay, and songs to play, and a house to make a home |
| [05:54.82] |
I guess I'm older now and I've got no time to cry |
| [06:09.25] |
I guess I'm older now, I just ain't got no time to cry |
| [06:23.61] |
No time to cry |
| [06:31.10] |
No time to cry |
| [06:38.45] |
No time to cry |
