Garrison Keillor
Ain't Got Time
Well it don't matter if I get my picture
On the cover of a magazine
You'll never know that I always try to do things right
Well it ain't no sweat if I always forget to get
Caught up in the small town scene
'Cause life's too short and I'm gonna get it straight tonight
Well I ain't got time, ain't got time
I've got to go on living 'cause I ain't got time to die
Well the man always preaches that I ain't got Jesus
And my soul's got a stain to clean
But there ain't no way to pay to get sanctified
But it's no big deal and you know I
That feel it's real and it can't be seen
'Cause time slips away and that's one thing you can't buy
Well I ain't got time, ain't got time
I've got to go on living 'cause I ain't got time to die
Well it don't matter if I get my picture
On the cover of a magazine
You'll never know that I always try to do things right
Well it ain't no sweat if I always forget to get
Caught up in the small town scene
'Cause life's too short and I'm gonna get it straight tonight
Well I ain't got time, ain't got time
I've got to go on living 'cause I ain't got time to die
Well I ain't got time, ain't got time
I've got to go on living 'cause I ain't got time to die
