[Verse 1]
I got my cup of coffee
Throw on my overalls
I grab my jacket from the nail hangin' on the wall
Meet up with my buddies, I can't make 'em wait
There's a job that must be done, there's no time to waste
[Chorus]
Time flies
Got to get it done while the gettin's good
We're up before the sun, and it's well understood
Bend over backwards, turn flips when necessary
Buildin' somethin' that will last, not something temporary
[Post-Chorus]
Time flies, hurry, hurry
Times flies, scurry, scurry
Workin' worry
My, time fliеs!
[Verse 2]
Life's a train we all must ride
Wе have to lay the rails
The tree of life always provides
We must use it well
Before you know it, day is done
Have to face the night
God bless us while we're sleepin'
Wake us to the light!
[Chorus]
Time flies
Got to get it done while the gettin's good
We're up before the sun, and it's well understood
Bend over backwards, turn flips when necessary
Buildin' somethin' that will last, not something temporary
[Chorus 2]
Time flies, heads are spinnin'
We must land on our feet
We hope we're winnin'
We can't afford defeat
We are the lumber and the railmen, and we fight
To keep the progress goin'
And we know time flies!
[Post-Chorus]
Time flies, hurry, hurry
Scurry, scurry
Workin' worry
My, time flies!
[Post-Chorus 2]
Time flies, hurry, hurry
Scurry, scurry
Workin' worry
Hurry, hurry!
Scurry, scurry
Workin' worry
Hurry, hurry!
My, time flies!
[Outro]
My, time flies!
Don't it fly?
My, time flies!
