| Well, I remember when I was seventeen |
| My father told me pick your dreams |
| He said life ain’t easy as it seems |
| When you get older you’ll see what I mean |
| All right, yeah |
| Well, at the time, I wanted to be twenty-one |
| It seemed the right age for havin' fun |
| But when I got there I was still too young |
| And twenty-five seemed to be the one. |
| But now I live my life from day to day |
| 'Cuz I wouldn’t have it any other way |
| Whether I’m twelve or whether I’m sixty-four |
| I spend my time like there ain’t gonna be no more |
| Yeah! |
| You know that sweet girl you’ve been chasin' round |
| She got you hooked 'long as she keeps you down |
| Well, I know what happens once she comes around |
| It won’t be long and you’ll be back on the town |
| But now I live my life from day to day |
| I wouldn’t have it any other way |
| Whether I’m twelve or whether I’m sixty-four |
| I spend my time like there ain’t gonna be no more |
| Lord, alright! |
| Lord! Yes, alright! |
| Things between, they suit you right. |
| But once you get them it seems like they’re all alike. |
| So make it last as long as you can |
| It’s so much easier when you understand |
| But now I live my life from day to day |
| I wouldn’t have it any other way |
| Whether I’m twelve or whether I’m sixty-four |
| I spend my time like there ain’t gonna be no more |
| No! |
| Yeah! |
| All right |
| Keep on rollin' |
| Along |
| Make it last |
| Keep on rollin' |
| Right on down |
| Make it last |
| As long as you can |
| Keep on rollin' |
| Come on! |
| Keep on rollin' |
| As long as you can |
| You got to make it last |
