By And By

Driving through West Virginia
And I've seldom been thinner
With that chip on my shoulder
And this past year I got so much older

Looking back over my life
Spent the most of it tongue-tied
And I wish I had more time
Listening to you speak your mind

Now I'm thinking 'bout it every day
On my mind a typical way
Are you a life force

Drinking coffee black as iron
And I couldn't be much higher
Without falling out of my chair
I've been so numb for so many years

Now I'm thinking 'bout it every day
On my mind a typical way
Are you a life force

And it's so easy
To be blinded by the light
To feel lonely in the night
And it's blowing in the breeze babe
I got dust in my eyes
And rust in my eyes
I'll be on call enxt spring
Won't you say you love me later
Bye and bye

Looking back over my life
Spent the most of it tongue-tied
Just wish I'd spent more time
Listening to her speak her mind

Now I'm thinking 'bout it every day
On my mind a typical way
Are you a life force
Thinking 'bout it every day
On my mind a typical way
Are you a life force
