Once in a Lifetime
And you may find yourself
Leaving a shotgun shack
And you may find yourself
In another part of the world
And you may find yourself
Behind the wheel of a large automobile
And you may find yourself
In a beautiful house with a wonderful spouse
And you may ask yourself
"Where? How did I get here?"
Letting the days go by
Let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by
Water flowing underground
Into the blue again after the money's gone
Once in a lifetime
Water flowing underground
And you may ask yourself
"How do I work this?"
And you may ask yourself
"Where is that large automobile?"
And you may tell yourself
"This is not my beautiful house"
And you may tell yourself
"This is not my wonderful spouse"
Letting the days go by
Let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by
Water flowing underground
Into the blue again after the money's gone
Once in a lifetime
Water flowing underground
Same as it ever was, same as it ever was
Same as it ever was, same as it ever was
Same as it ever was, same as it ever was
Same as it ever was, same as it ever was
Same same same same as it ever was, same as it ever was
You may ask yourself
"What is that beautiful house?"
You may ask yourself
"Where does that highway go to?"
And you may ask yourself
"Am I right? Am I wrong?"
And you may say to yourself
"My God, what have I done?"
Letting the days go by
Let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by
Water flowing underground
Into the blue again
Into the silent water
Under the rocks and stones
There is water underground
Letting the days go by
Let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by
Water flowing underground
Into the blue again after the money's gone
Once in a lifetime
Water flowing underground
Same as it ever was, same as it ever was
Same as it ever was and look where my hand was
Time isn't holding up, time isn't after us
Same as it ever was, same as it ever was
Letting the days go by, same as it ever was
Letting the days go by
Here a twister comes
Letting the days go by
Here comes the twister
Once in a lifetime
It's the same as it ever was
Leaving a shotgun shack
And you may find yourself
In another part of the world
And you may find yourself
Behind the wheel of a large automobile
And you may find yourself
In a beautiful house with a wonderful spouse
And you may ask yourself
"Where? How did I get here?"
Letting the days go by
Let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by
Water flowing underground
Into the blue again after the money's gone
Once in a lifetime
Water flowing underground
And you may ask yourself
"How do I work this?"
And you may ask yourself
"Where is that large automobile?"
And you may tell yourself
"This is not my beautiful house"
And you may tell yourself
"This is not my wonderful spouse"
Letting the days go by
Let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by
Water flowing underground
Into the blue again after the money's gone
Once in a lifetime
Water flowing underground
Same as it ever was, same as it ever was
Same as it ever was, same as it ever was
Same as it ever was, same as it ever was
Same as it ever was, same as it ever was
Same same same same as it ever was, same as it ever was
You may ask yourself
"What is that beautiful house?"
You may ask yourself
"Where does that highway go to?"
And you may ask yourself
"Am I right? Am I wrong?"
And you may say to yourself
"My God, what have I done?"
Letting the days go by
Let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by
Water flowing underground
Into the blue again
Into the silent water
Under the rocks and stones
There is water underground
Letting the days go by
Let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by
Water flowing underground
Into the blue again after the money's gone
Once in a lifetime
Water flowing underground
Same as it ever was, same as it ever was
Same as it ever was and look where my hand was
Time isn't holding up, time isn't after us
Same as it ever was, same as it ever was
Letting the days go by, same as it ever was
Letting the days go by
Here a twister comes
Letting the days go by
Here comes the twister
Once in a lifetime
It's the same as it ever was
