Sister cries out from her baby bed
Brother runs in feathers on his head
Mammas in her room learning how to sew
Daddys drinking beer, listening to the radio
Hank williams sings kaw liga and dear john

And time marches on, time marches on

Sisters using rouge and clear complexion soap
Brothers wearing beads and he smokes alot of dope
Mamma is depressed, barely makes a sound
Daddys got a girlfriend in another town

Bob dylan sings like a rolling stone

And time marches on, time marches on

(bridge)

The south moves north, the north moves south
A star is born, a star burns out
The only thing that stays the same
Is everything changes, everything changes

Sister calls herself a sexy grandma
Brothers on a diet for high cholesterol

Mammas out of touch with reality

Daddys in the ground beneath a maple tree
As the angels sing an old hank williams song

Time marches on, time marches on
Time marches on, time marches on

Time marches on, time marches on
