Time Marches On Lyrics
Sister cries out
from her baby bed
Brother runs in
feathers on his head
Mamma's in her room
learning how to sew
Daddy's 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 a lot of dope
Mamma is depressed
barely makes a sound
Daddy's got a girlfriend
in another town
Bob Dylan sings Like A Rolling Stone
And time marches on
time marches on
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
Brother's on a diet
for high cholesterol
Mamma's out of touch
with reality
Daddy's 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
