Lyrics
Talk Is Cheap
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Talk about life, talk about death
Talk about catching every breath
Talk about when, and talk about why!
Talk about do, and talk about don’t
Talk about will and talk about won’t
Talk about the sweet…
Chorus:
Well, talk is cheap and times are wasting
Get busy living or at least die trying
Wine is for tasting, roads for taking
Talk is cheap and times are wasting!
Talk about right, and talk about wrong
Talk about trying to get along
Talk about the way it all would be.
Talk about now, and talk about then
Talk about everywhere you’ve been
Talk about being free.
Chorus: (x2)
Well, talk is cheap and times are wasting
Get busy living or at least die trying
Wine is for tasting, roads for taking
Talk is cheap and times are wasting!
