Right on Time Songtext
von Jerry Douglas

(Feat. Marc Cohn)

It′s not my nature to be patient
Cause I jump every river I cross
Not one for following the sensible side
I can't count the times I′ve been lost.

Well, you can't see where you're goin′ in the pourin′ rain
When you're runnin′ into walls and feeling no pain
We all owe dues to the devil and I've paid mine
It took a while to get here, but I′m right on time.


I don't regret one single moment
It′s been one hell of a ride
I count myself among the fortunate ones
Who made it to the other side.

Well, you go what you go through to get where you are
Lucky for me I didn't go too far
I turned around before the end of the line
Took a while to get here, but I'm right on time.

Well, you can′t see where you′re goin' in the pourin′ rain
When you're runnin′ into walls and feeling no pain
We all owe dues to the devil and I've paid mine
It took a while to get here, but I′m right on time.

It took a while to get here, but I'm right on time.
