Lonely Man Lyrics

Time flies by like a shot from a gun
Making hey with the devil in the new day sun
Striking with the iron when the iron is hot
Mmm, paying my dues for the life I got

Living for the minute and living for the day
In my own time and my own way
Heading nowhere just as fast as I can
Yeah, I'm riding on dunes leaving tracks in the sand
They say that's how you die a lonely man


Ti-i-ime, yipee yippe yippe yay
Leaving my tracks in the sand
Ti-i-ime, yipee yippe yippe yay
Going at it hard, striving at the wind
They say that's how you die a lonely man

There's a train to Chicago and a plane to L.A.
Yeah I'm meeting in Akron on All Saint's Day
Well, it got so late I forgot to call in
Yeah, daddy's doing business at the bar again
They say that's how you die a lonely man

Ti-i-ime, yipee yippe yippe yay
Leaving my tracks in the sand
Ti-i-ime, yipee yippe yippe yay
Going at it hard, striving in the wind
They say that's how you die a lonely man
They say that's how you die a lonely man

Kid's asking mom, daddy's getting home
Mama's getting angry, dinner's cold on the stove
She gets the house, the kids, and the van

I get the life of a lonely man
I get the life of a lonely man
I get the life of a lonely man
I get the life of a lonely man

Ti-i-ime, yipee yippe yippe yay
Going at it hard, striving at the wind
They say that's how you die a lonely man
Tat's how you die a lonely man

Lonely man
Lonely man
Lonely man
