Ive lived long enough to see the dead horse

Ive lived long enough to cross swamps at night

Ive lived long enough to chase a rat

Ive lived long enough to take a jet ride


If you see me on an airplane

Just make sure and get out of my way


I lived long enough to know the sun will drop

And you ought to leave it lie

To see the dying of the pines


Ive lived long enough to kill my first love

Ive lived long enough to break in and do harm

Ive lived long enough to fly an airplane

Ive lived long enough to break a machine


If you see me on an airplane

Just make sure and get out of my way


I lived long enough to know the sun will drop

And you ought to leave it lie

To see the dying of the pines
