Lyrics
Only Time Will Tell 2012 © Jim Burnevik
I've been with a good woman for thirty-five winters. I shoveled the snow, she cooked the dinners.
Thirty-five years of heaven and hell. I hope it works out, only time will tell.
I've been with the same woman for thirty-five springs.
Didn't need no preacher, didn't need no rings.
I've been with a fine lady for thirty-five summers. Lots a good times only a few bummers
Thirty-five years of heaven and hell. I hope it works out, only time will tell.
Chorus:
I've been with that girl through hell and back. And she always loved me and been good in the rack.
Never a question, never a doubt. Its been thirty-five years, and I hope it works out.
Thirty five years of heaven and hell I hope it works out, only time will tell.
I've been with my gal for thirty-five autumns. She tossed a couple curves, but I always caught 'em. I've been with a good woman for thirty-five years. Drank lots of whiskey and had a few beers.
I've been with that woman through rain and snow Didn't matter if I was high or low.
Thirty-five years of heaven and hell. I hope it works out, only time will tell.
Chorus:
