Killin' Time Lyrics - 1972

[ Buy Killin' Time ]

You were the first thing that i thought of
When i thought i drank you off my mind
When i get lost in the liquor
You're the only one i find
And if i did the things i oughta
You still would not be mine
So i'll keep a tight grip on the bottle
Gettin' loose and killin' time
This killin' time is killin' me
Drinking myself blind thinkin' i won't see
That if i cross that line and they bury me
I just might find i'll be killin' time for eternity
I don't know nothin' 'bout tomorrow
I've been lost in yesterday
I've spent all my life just dying
For a love that passed away
And if there's an end to all my sorrow
And this is the only price i'll pay
I'll be a happy man when i go
And i can't wait another day
Repeat chorus
