Time Marches On

April 12, 2015 By Bill

time marches on

Sister cries out from her baby bed
Brother runs in feathers on his head
Momma’s in a room learning how to sew
Daddy’s drinking beer listening to the radio
Hank Williams sings Kaw-Liga and Dear John
And time marches on
Time marches on

Sister’s using rouge and clear complexion soap
Brother’s wearing beads and he smokes a lotta dope
Momma is depressed barely makes a sound
Daddy’s got a girlfriend in another town
Bob Dylan sings Like a Rolling Stone
And time marches on
Time marches on

The South moves North
The North moves South
A star is born
A star burns out
The only thing that stays the same is everything changes
Everything changes

Sister calls herself sexy grandma
Brother’s on a diet of high cholesterol
Momma’s out of touch with reality
Daddy’s in the ground beneath the maple tree
As the angels sing an old Hank Williams song
Time marches on
Time marches on
Time marches on
Time marches on
Time marches on
Time marches on

    This song has always moved me. Now, more so than ever.
