Lyrics

The eagles flying tomorrow
Mosquita bitin' me today
I ride the bus to Toronto Highway 2 all the way
I talk a walk along Young Street
A good times to bob your soul
Remember this children if the good lord's willin', it's a long long time to get old
Uh huh
I ain't come back to the home town
The liquor stores burnt down
My old girlfriend arrived, way on the east end of town
Ahhh had to laugh at her when passed me, and I knew I've been told She said "Remember this children if the good lord's willin', it's a long long time to get old"
Get you some lean times momma
I watched a fat friend go
She's a wreck on this highway, ah you've been driving home slow
So lay some truth on ya young one, getting something to hold Because remember this children if the good lord's willin', it's a long long time to get old
All right
Well she sings you a story
And you can tell her song
Laying down by the river
Oh summers slipping along
With her eyes closed dreaming, some shine some bold
Remember this children if the good lord's willin', it's a long long time to get old
The eagles flying tomorrow
No mosquita bitin' me today
I ride the bus to Toronto Highway 2 all the way
I talk a walk along Young Street
A good times to bob your soul
Remember this children if the good lord's willin', it's a long long time to get old
Oh now
Remember this children if the good lord's willin', it's a long long time to get old
