[Verse 1]
Sister cries out, from her baby bed
Brother runs in, feathers on his head
Mama's in her room learnin' how to sew
Daddy's drinkin' beer listenin' to the radio

[Refrain]
Hank Williams sings "Kaw-Liga" and "Dear John"
And time marches on, time marches on

[Verse 2]
Sister's using rouge to clear complexion soap
Brother's wearin' beads and he smokes a lot of dope
Mama is depressed, barely makes a sound
Daddy's got a girlfriend in another town

[Refrain]
Bob Dylan sings "Like a Rolling Stone"
And time marches on, time marches on

[Verse 3]
The South moves north, the North moves south
A star is born, a star burns out
The only thing that stays the same is
Everything changes, everything changes
[Verse 4]
Sister calls herself a sexy grandma
Brother's on a diet for high cholesterol
Mama's out of touch with reality
Daddy's in the ground beneath the maple tree

[Refrain]
The angels sing an old Hank Williams song
Time marches on, time marches on
Time marches on, time marches on
