Long as You're Living Lyrics & Tabs by Maria Muldaur
Long as You're Living
guitar chords lyrics
Forgive me if I seem to preach
But there is something that I want to say
A message that I hope will reach
People who are throwing life away
I call it my philosophy
And that is why I pass it on to you
Because it works so well for me
And helps me get away from strife
I hope you listen carefully
They say the truth will make you free
And that's the way you want to be 'cause brother, this is your life
Long as you're living, always remember
Time is for spending, but there's an ending
While you are sleeping, lifetime's a-creeping
Wake up and taste it, foolish to waste it
Time is for spending, but there's an ending
While you are sleeping, lifetime's a-creeping
Wake up and taste it, foolish to waste it
Sample and savour all of life's flavour
Long as you're living
Long as you're living, always remember
Folks who are lazy are playing crazy
Better keep moving, keep on improving
You won't be hurried after you're buried
Live every minute, put yourself in it
Long as you're living
Long as you're living, always remember
You'll never beat life, so don't try to cheat life
Sisters and brother, do unto others
Love's for enjoying, hate's for destroying
Never forget it, or you'll regret it
Long as you're living
Forgive if I seem to preach...
