Layin’ on the green grass, on a Sunday afternoon.
Lookin’ up to Heaven, hummin’ some old tune.
Sunshine on this old face, ah Lord it feels so good.
Thinkin’ of the old days, where a younger man once stood.
In time this life will end. I’ll live my life till then.
Surrounded by my friends, I’ll be the best I can.
Best I can

Wonder ‘bout the weather, not a cloud in the sky.
Like a blowin’ feather, has time passed me by.
Remembering the sorrow, and emotions deep inside.
If everything stays the same, I change all the time.
In time this life will end. I’ll live my life till then.
Surrounded by my friends, I’ll be the best I can.
Best I can

Old men playin’ checkers, to pass the time of day.
Lovers walkin’ by me, trying to find the words to say.
Life comes full circle, if you want it to or not.
Hopin’ it won’t find me, I’m already caught.
In time this life will end. I’ll live my life till then.
Surrounded by my friends, I’ll be the best I can.
Best I can
