Lyrics
Livin For Today
Getting old an turning gray--my days are numbered in this place
Its getting harder to get by--I can't keep running at this pace
Taking pills by the handful--doc. says I can't be sitting still
If the terrorist don't get me -my bad habits probably will
Chorus
I'm living for today- I'm only going round one time
If I keep thinking about tomorrow--I know I'm gonna loose my mind
One in ten out on the highway--chance is I could wind up dead
No more living for tomorrow--I'm only living for today
lead
When I got to work this morning-my boss said , you're way to slow
They keep raising all the quotas--it ain't funny any more
All my bills are getting higher--there ain't no way, that I can pay
If I loose my job tomorrow--then your gonna hear me say
Chorus
I'm living for today-I'm only going round one time
If I keep worrying about tomorrow--I know I'm gonna loose my mind
One in ten out on the highway--chance is I could wind up dead
No more living for tomorrow--I'm only living for today
If I don't get to see tomorrow--I did my all my living yesterday
