CAN'T BE TOO LONG

Ah ah ah ah Ah ah The heat of a summer day Down and down on my bed Work like a dog in the sunlight Tryin' to pay the people back I killed a man in the springtime Had to happen just to make it damn To buy my baby the things that she needs I guess I didn't think twice And now I have to pay the price For killing the man of another creed Ah ah ah ah Ah ah I guess I have to be strong The rest of my life can't be too long I know I die some day And we're goin' far away And you won't remember The things I've done I feel a shedding tear It's only been a year But I know I'll be dead When that evening come Ah ah ah ah Ah ah I guess I have to be strong The rest of my life can't be too long Ah ah ah ah Ah ah
