The Devil’s right there in your eyes
And it comes as no surprise
Given the way that you’ve been carrying on
I smell the whiskey on your breath
And you have that look of death
You’re waiting for the last train to come along
And you live your life like there ain’t no tomorrow
Fearing what the future may hold
And you always thought that we would be forever
Don’t want to be on your own when your growing old
So down that drink, pop that pill
Chase the line - you know you will
Forget about your worries and your fears
Smoke that smoke, eat at the feast
For you’re never going to tame the beast
And you’re future will have you rolling back the years
And you live your life like there ain’t no tomorrow
Fearing what the future may hold
And you always thought that we would be forever
Don’t want to be on your own when you’re growing old
Time done gone a little too fast
And as you rewind through your past
Wondering how you got things so very wrong
But the past is where you long to be
Nostalgia comes for free
So raise a glass and listen to the old time song
