Lyrics

The old cat on the roof
He could stand a little push
'Cause he's got nine good lives to live
But like my mama said
You only live 'til you're dead
And you got to give and give and give
There's a pebble in the pond
Going on and on
Making waves and tides and ripples and rain
There's a leaf in the wind
That don't know where to end
Chasing days and ways and wishes and dreams
Seems like everyone is out
Looking for the sun
Singing rain and pain on he who hesitates
But it'll shine when it shines
You might think I'm wasting time
But I'm just a good old boy that's learned to wait
Wipperwil's in the dawn
Pretty soon he'll be gone
He's got one good song to sing
But like my daddy said
It's in your heart, not your head
And you've got to sing, and sing, and sing
There's a window in the wall
Looking out on it all
Leaving fears and tears and troubles alone
There's a fire in the stove
Keeping out the cold
Warming wine and winters and babies and homes
Seems like everyone is out
Looking for the sun
Singing rain and pain on he who hesitates
But it'll shine when it shines
You might think I'm wasting time
But I'm just a good old boy that's learned to wait
Yes, I'm just a good old boy
That's learned to wait
