lyrics

He said you got the world by the short hairs don'tcha?
you never sang the blues
you got all that you could've asked for
and that's all you can lose
he said I had me this little angel of my own
but this old earth it just rolls on and on
and good dogs will get old
and good beer's cold
when you're drying on the vine

Now don't worry about time
there's worse things than dying
he's taking it fine
drying on the vine

So I bought him a round and listened
to a bit of his reminiscin'
about drinking and women and baseball and fishing
I caught my reflection in his old blue eyes
he said life's made for living
and it can be fine
but when it rains, when it rains it pours
and it rains til it can't rain anymore

Said don't worry about dying
no there's worse things it's fine
he's taking his time
drying on the vine
