Watching the world go by / Ray Smith
Hey Baby did you happen to see who was killed today on TV
no man I did not know I was busy tryin to make things go
Life is crazy with no down time, late night radio and cheep red wine
If time was somethin that I could buy I'd spend all my money but instead
-CH-
I'm wachin the world go by Wachin the world go by
A rebel child when she ran away breakin hearts and givin no sway
knocked up in Woodstock alone in that town
a fine singer she was New York bound
Came time she had to choose, the little baby or the Rock nRoll shoes
everyday she achs from the lie
-CH-
-BR-
When life says go you better not wait
you're sleepin in the bed you make
