Time Songtext
von Dan Penn

Time, what is time?
I only know that I haven′t got any
Used to have plenty
Where did it, where did it go?

I can remember goin' catfishin′
My pockets were empty
I didn't have a dime
Didn't have a penny
But Lord, I had, Lord, I had time


Whatever happened to Sunday parties
Old people are takin′ their time
Takin′ out Sunday to brighten their visions
Takin' the day to clean out their minds
Time, oh time, oh time, oh time

Oh, curses, time

And a little windup that we all call the wristwatch
Is turnin′ and burnin' and runnnin′ our lives
Runnin' the people
Nobody′s got any time, but nobody
Seems like nobody's got no time these days
Time, oh time

Where did it go?
Where did it go?
Where did it go?
Where did it go?
Where did it go?
Time, oh time, oh time, oh time
