Time Marches On (The Bootlegger Sessions)

Lyrics

Sister cries out, from her baby bed
 Brother runs in, feathers on his head
 Mama's in her room learnin' how to sew
 Daddy's drinkin' beer listenin' to the radio
 Hank Williams sings "Kaw-Liga" and "Dear John"
 And time marches on, time marches on
 ♪
 Sister's using rouge to clear complexion soap
 Brother's wearin' beads, and he smokes a lot of dope
 Mama 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 a sexy grandma
 Brother's on a diet for high cholesterol
 Mama's out of touch with reality
 Daddy's in the ground beneath the maple tree
 The angels sing an old Hank Williams song
 Time marches on, time marches on
 Time marches on, time marches on
