Don't hesitate, life won't wait
Don't be afraid to make mistakes
Don't let your pride be your guide
Make sure you live before you die

My old man and me, we never got along
It's always who's right, and who is wrong
Now he's turning old and gray
Precious time is slipping away

[chorus]

My girl Sue, I loved her so
But I never got around to letting her know
Then one day her heart moved on
Now I'm the fool and Suzy's gone

At the end of the line
Who among us has not wasted time
And watched the world go by...
