He's done a lotta livin'
This old man in front of me
He's told me lots of stories
About his life, living free
He told me 'bout his hopes
He told me of his dreams
And now his time has come
He's falling apart at the seams
And he said
"I've seen the sun on the horizon
I've seen the moon is riding high
So dig your boots in and start riding
Catch the moon before the end is nigh"
He's done a lotta livin'
He's felt a lot of pain
How do I tell his children
He won't be back again
And he said
"Tell 'em no one lives forever
Life just don't last that long
So live your life to it's fullest
And you just can't go wrong
I've seen the sun on the horizon
I've seen the moon is riding high
So dig your boots in and start riding
Catch the moon before the end is nigh"
