Time To Kill

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.

The many roads I've covered

The many trails I've burned

But when our paths did cross, love, whew

My whole world made a turn

And we've got time to kill

What a thrill

June and July

Buckets of the tears that we cried

Now we don't cry no more

Gonna bolt the door

Don't know what we've got

But it feels like a lot

We don't need no more

When my day's work is done

We can take in a jamboree

But I just wanna sit down by the fire

With my love right here beside me

We've got time to kill

Catskill

Sweet by and by

We've got all our love

The sky above

The twinkle in your eye

Now where the wheel might roll

Is where my love and I shall go

We're gonna plant the seed

There ain't nothing we need

We found our own rainbow

My love wants to have her fortune read

And I know that she's in a hurry

If we go along the straight and narrow

You don't even have to worry

We've got time to kill

Standin' still

Go on, give it a try

We've got all our love

Mountains of

The trees are so high

We don't need no big car

Don't eat no caviar

When we come to rest

We take to the nest

You know where we are
