Strummed my guitar on a late summer morning when suddenly a call came through
Caught me off guard, though not without warning
I was still shocked it came so soon
Don't bring me down
Not here, not now
We've always tried to do good in our lives
But bad things happen to us all at some time
That's just life
In the end we're fine
Dog gone, let's drive awhile, but try to get me, get me home on time
Tonight
Try to get me, get me home on time
Signs were there all along, but never seen when having fun
Cause passing time makes youth fly by, and we all live forever when we're young
Yet nothing lasts
All things must pass
Like sunny days, quiet peace in the night, and warm embraces of people we like
Then we pray: "May it never die"
Dog gone, let's drive awhile, but try to get me, get me home on time
Tonight
Try to get me, get me home on time
We have tried to do good in our lives
But bad things happen to us all at some time
That's just life in the end, we're fine
There's no time to cry
Dog gone, let's drive awhile
Just try to get me, get me home on time
Tonight
Try to get me, get me home on time
To get me, get me home on time
To get me, get me home on time
Dog gone
