I met an old man on a Greyhound
On my way down to New Orleans
He started talkinâ in the backseat
He pulled out a flask and passed it to me
He said, âSomeday youâll be my age
And start lookinâ back on where youâve been
Youâll get a little sad and just a little mad
When it hits you, you canât do it all againâ
So order up the good wine
Soak up the sunshine
And donât forget to take time
To try to love someone
âCause lifeâs just a crazy ride on a runaway train
And you canât go back for what you missed
So make it good, make it last âcause it all files by so fast
And you only get one trip
I got off in Jackson and I started thinkinâ
Starinâ out the window at the rain
And I been livinâ like a man sleep walkinâ
Thereâs a lot of things that I'm gonna change
I'm gonna order up the good wine
Start soakinâ up the good times
Wonât let another day go by
Without lovinâ someone
âCause lifeâs just a crazy ride on a runaway train
And you canât go back for what you missed
So make it good, make it last âcause it all files by so fast
You only get one trip
Life's just a crazy ride on a run away train
You can't go back for what you've missed
So make it count, hold on tight find a way to make it right
You only get one trip
So make it good, make it last âcause it all flies by so fast
You only get one trip
