(Carlene Carter/Howie Epstein/Benmont Tench) Get out of bed you sleepy head And shake a leg or two The sun is up, pour some coffee in the cup The rent is way past due Could I rewind the hands of time Back to my wasted youth I'd lay the days all out in a line And waste my time with you The freeway's like a parkin' lot And I'm runnin' low on time I'm workin' double shifts to find I'm barely scrapin' by What I would give if I could live The way the rich folks do Just kickin' back in my cadillac And wastin' time with you We could take the time so hard to find And wrestle it to the floor Then wake up and do nothin' like it's never been done before Sometimes at night my thoughts ignite In dreams of great escape A couple sticks of dynamite And no more workin' late I'm sure the cops would understand They're workin' people too And I'd like to take this chance to thank Those hard workin' boys in blue Just kickin' back in our cadillac And wastin' time with you Just wastin' time with you I wanna be wastin' time with you

Wastin' my mind on you. Wastin' my mind on you. Makes my head spin, Where does your love begin and end There's no answer, To the questions I keep askin' you. Look at me like I'm a fool. Wastin' my mind on you. Wastin' my mind on you. Wishin' my heart would've thought things through. Wastin' my mind on you. Sweet confusion, Always changin' your point of view. A fine illusion, Keeps me hangin' on to find the truth. Look at me I'm such a fool. Look at the fool. Follow true. Yeah, look at the fool. Wastin' my mind on you. Wastin' my mind on you. Wishin' my heart would've thought things through. Well I'm wastin' my mind... Wastin' my mind on you. Took out the fool.

Last Sunday morning, the sunshine felt like rain Week before, they all seemed the same With the help of God and true friends, I come to realize I still had two strong legs and even wings to fly And oh, I ain't wastin' time no more 'Cause time goes by like hurricanes And faster things Lord, Lord miss Sally, why are you cryin'? Been around here three long days, lookin' like you're dyin' Just step yourself outside and look up at the stars above Go on downtown, baby, find somebody to love But meanwhile I ain't wastin' time no more 'Cause time goes by like pouring rain And much faster things You don't need no gypsy to tell you why You can't let one precious day to slip by Look inside yourself and if you don't see what you want Maybe sometimes then you don't But leave your mind alone and just get high Well, by and by, way after many years have gone And all the war freaks die off leavin' us alone We'll raise our children in the peaceful way we can It's up to you and me, brother, to try and try again To hear us now, we ain't wastin' time no more 'Cause time goes by like hurricanes Runnin' after subway trains Don't forget the pouring rain
