There's no time to kill between the cradle and the grave

Father Time still takes a toll on every minute that you save

Legal tender's never gonna change the number on your days

The highest cost of livin's dyin', that's one everybody pays

So have it spent before you get the bill, there's no time to kill



If we'd known ten years ago today would be ten years from now

Would we spend tomorrow's yesterdays and make it last somehow

Or leed the cheers in someone else's game and never learn to play

And see the rules of thumb are all the same that measure every day

The grass is green on both sides of the hill, there's no time to kill



CHORUS

No time to kill, even I've said it and probably always will

But I can look ahead and see that time ain't standin' still

No time to kill but time to change the kind of hurry I've been in

And quit this work and worry lookin' back at where I've been

If you don't look ahead nobody will, there's no time to kill



If we had an hour glass to watch each one go by

Or a bell to mark each one to pass, we'd see just how they fly

Would we escalate the value to be worth its weight in gold

Or would we never know the fortunes that we had till we grow old

And do we just keep killin' time until there's no time to kill



REPEAT CHORUS TWICE



No time to kill

No time to kill

No time to kill
