Beautiful Ride

Now that I have lived
 A lifetime's worth of days
 Finally I see
 The folly of my ways
 So listen when I sing of
 The temptations of this world
 Fancy cars and needles
 Whisky, flesh and pearls
 And then in the end
 It's family and friends
 Loving yourself
 But not only yourself
 It's about the good walk
 And the hard walk
 And the young girls you've made cry
 It's about make a little music everyday 'til you di-ie
 Beautiful ride ()
 As I stand on the precipice of death
 My perspective is enormous
 Every leaf, every cloud
 I see the hands which have formed us
 And some days all you got
 Is a nighttime graveyard walk
 And you whistle some sweet melody
 To the ghosts down at the dock
 It's about the good walk
 And the hard walk
 And the young girls you've made cry
 It's about make a little music everyday 'til you di-ie

 (bridge--)
 Sing in to your hand
 Lead the marching band
 Don't you let 'em fade your colors gray
 'Cause when all is said and done
 When youth is spent and burned
 You'll see that it's all about
 Music!
 Flowers!
 Babies!
 Sharing the good times!
 Traveling not just for business!
 Excepting your mortality!
 This- is finally what I've learned!
 And then in the end
 It's family and friends
 Loving yourself
 But not only yourself
 It's about the good walk
 And the hard walk
 And the young girls you've made cry
 It's about make a little music everyday 'til you di-ie
 Beautiful ride
