God Fearing Gypsies

The golden days of being young in the summer are gone I'm still golden But I'm older And I feel like I'm feeling it now Both ends of the candle I've been burning are going out I'm still burning But I'm learning How to burn a little slower now Father Time Mother Mary Jane Jack and Jesus Sunshine and rain Just a little goes a long, long way Long live the God-fearing gypsies That live as hard as they pray If you're a son of a son With the hand-me-down neon dreams And your Sunday best is Your best pair of Levi jeans If you drink like you're 21 Love like you're 17 Raising babies and a little hell in between Father Time Mother Mary Jane Jack and Jesus Sunshine and rain Just a little goes a long, long way Long live the God-fearing gypsies That live as hard as they pray If you're taking the long way Enjoy the ride and make it sweet If you're learning the hard way It'll be alright, you can take it from me Father Time Mother Mary Jane Jack and Jesus Sunshine and rain Just a little goes a long, long way Long live the God-fearing gypsies That live as hard as they pray Here's to the God-fearing gypsies that live as hard as they pray
