Big bright moon is shining

Down on the desert sands

Well I reached down and touched the Earth

And held it in my hands

As the dirt fell through my fingers

The wind did seem to say

Don't put off until tomorrow

What you can do today

[Chorus]

Cause, time don't wait on nobody

Time don't wait on nobody

Time don't wait on nobody

It just keeps movin' on

Time don't wait on nobody

Time don't wait on nobody

Time don't wait on nobody

It just keeps movin' on

And on ... and on ... and on

A thousand angels dropped matches

That lit up the desert sky

Well, a pillar of fire from East to West

Came slowly drifting by

A voice from the clouds like thunder

Said start lookin' for a ride

Said where yesterday meets tomorrow

That'll get you to the other side

[Chorus]

Cause, time don't wait on nobody

Time don't wait on nobody

Time don't wait on nobody

It just keeps movin' on

Time don't wait on nobody

Time don't wait on nobody

Time don't wait on nobody

It just keeps movin' on

And on ... and on ... and on

[Instrumental]

[Chorus]

Cause, time don't wait on nobody

Time don't wait on nobody

Time don't wait on nobody

It just keeps movin' on

Time don't wait on nobody

Time don't wait on nobody

Time don't wait on nobody

It just keeps movin' on

And on ... and on ... and on

[Chorus]

Cause, time don't wait on nobody

Time don't wait on nobody

Time don't wait on nobody

It just keeps movin' on

Time don't wait on nobody

Time don't wait on nobody

Time don't wait on nobody

It just keeps movin' on

And on ... and on ... and on

[Chorus]

Cause, time don't wait on nobody

Time don't wait on nobody

Time don't wait on nobody

It just keeps movin' on

Time don't wait on nobody

Time don't wait on nobody

Time don't wait on nobody

It just keeps movin' on

And on ... and on ... and on
