Alabama - Start Living lyrics

He just can't wait to graduate

He's marking time and counting days

He'll toss that cap and watch that tassel fly

So he can start living

Yeah, finally start living

'Cause he's got big plans

And he'll have time on his hands

To start living

Before he knows ten years are gone

A dead-end job, a mortgage loan

He wonders where the chances passed him by

To really start living

Yeah he wants to start living

And soon he's sure

He can finally afford

To start living

He'll read more books

He'll make more love

He'll talk more to the man above

He'll watch the sunset in the west

And visit Mexico

He'll learn to cook, he'll play some ball

He'll write that book, he'll make that call

He'll take the time

Some other time

Someday he'll do it all

Well sittin' in the barber chair

He sees the silver in his hair

Those golden years are comin' right behind

And then he'll start living

He'll really start living

Yeah he feels tired

Ah, but soon he'll retire

And start living

He'll read more books

He'll make more love

He'll talk more to the man above

He'll watch the sunset in the west

And visit Mexico

He'll learn to cook, he'll play some ball

He'll write that book, he'll make that call

He'll take the time

Some other time

Someday he'll do it all

Well the doctor says, I've got bad news

Afraid there's nothing we can do

And all at once the tears are in his eys

He'll never start living

Never really start living

Yeah he had big plans

But there's no time on his hands

To start living

When he sees the pearly gates

He'll really start living
