Lifetime lyrics

I called my mama yesterday

to wish her happy birthday

she said, Babe, your mama`s getting old.

and I`m glad to be alive today.

You know, I`m 10 years cancer free

And I thank the good Lord everyday

But Marie`s got it bad,

And honey, Patsy`s passed away



She Said

A lifetime ain`t no time at all

A lifetime ain`t no time at all



As I listened to my mama`s voice

I felt a chill pass right thru

I`ve seen the virus take the boys

I got friends that been sick too

I told her bout how Michael died

with his friends around him everyday

how we all took turns there by his side

and we helped him disappear that way.



a lifetime ain`t no time at all.

a lifetime ain`t no time at all.



Mama said well ain`t we a mess,

Child we`re full of life

and scared of death.

It must be hell to watch your friends die young,

but honey getting old now there`s some fun

Life`d mean nothing if we didn`t die

Laughter empty if we didn`t cry

It`s all the way it`s supposed to be

It moves fast it`s hard to see



cause a lifetime ain`t no time at all

cause a lifetime ain`t no time at all.

a lifetime ain`t no time at all.
