Song I have been writing forever, trying to "fine tune" it, forgive the pun. also a poem. |
We’re gonna live until we die Then we won’t get any older Darlin love until we cry When He taps us on the shoulder Gonna live until we die Well after twenty years I thought our life was safe not sorry And we’d spend our golden years Hands entwined, a True Love Story We’re gonna love until we die But then you sent me down the road I think they call it “Packin” With my soul an empty room And my heart so near to cracking So now I’ll cry and cry and cry But then a vision came to me She said your life’s not nearly over Get up off your knees Bask in sunshine, smell the Clover So I live until I die Then I won’t get any older And I’ll laugh until I cry When He taps me on the shoulder Gonna live until I die I’m gonna dance with all the girls Til my boots fall off in tatters Gonna Hug and kiss their curls Nothing else that really matters Oh I’ll dance until I die Then I won’t get any older Gonna hug until I cry When HE taps me on the shoulder Gonna live until I die Gonna live until I die Then I won’t get any older And I’ll laugh until I cry Till He taps me on the shoulder Gonna live until I die I’m gonna eat the finest foods And I’ll even lick the platters Gonna drink my favourite booze From the bottle doesn’t matter Yes I’ll eat until I die Oh Lordy drink until I cry Oh I’ll live until I die Then I won’t get any older Gonna laugh until I cry When HE taps me on the shoulder Gonna live until I die Oh Lordy laugh until I cry When the Reaper comes for me He’ll have to wait until I’m finished But he’ll laugh and smile with glee Cause my Spirit won’t diminish Gonna wait for me to die Oh Lordy smile while I try I'm Gonna live until I die Then I won’t get any older Gonna laugh until I cry When HE taps me on the shoulder Gonna live until I die |
