I never know
What's on your mind
You are the great mystery of my life
We'll be getting on soon
It's only a matter of time
Not gonna waste
Life getting old
I'm gonna take the long and winding road
To go see what I wanna see
It's only a matter of time
Ain't gonna lay my head in your sleep
'Cause I don't care when I die
You can dig that hole
For your rusted soul
But don't go digging mine
No time to pray
For peace of mind
You're gonna be dead for a long long time
Get up off your knees
Life's only a matter of time
Ain't gonna lay my head in your sleep
'Cause I don't care when I die
You can preach your word
From your own lectern
But don't go preach on mine
I'll find the sun before it goes
Ain't gonna sit around here on death row
Fate will have it all soon
It's only a matter of time
Ain't gonna lay my head in your sleep
'Cause I don't care when I die
You can waste time on
Any fool you want
But don't go wasting mine
Won't fade away
When I get old
I'll be there fingerpickin' my banjo
Swingin' on my porch seat
It's only a matter of time
It's only a matter of time
It's only a matter of time
It's only a matter of time ...
