Not Just Passin’ Time Lyrics by Bob Childers

I Ain’t No Jukebox

0

[Verse]
Some folks been trying to tell me
That I've thrown away my youth
Trying to say there ain't no freedom
No peace or love or truth
Yeah, well I believe I'll just keep searching
Til I find myself or die
I know that there's a reason
I saw it written across the sky
[Chorus]
You see I saw those rainbows
[?]
They wouldn't let us know
That we're not just passin' time
[Verse]
Some folks been trying to tell me
It don't mean a thing
Say that music's just for playing
Words are just to sing
Yeah, well I believe I'll just keep strumming
Til I find myself a song
Maybe make up for my mischief
Or turn somebody on
[Chorus]
Yes I saw those rainbows
[?]
They wouldn't let us know
That we're not just passin' time
[Verse]
Some folks been trying to tell me
That I'm beat before I start
Say it's bound to bring me down
Maybe even break my heart
But I believe I'll just keep rolling
Til they shovel dirt on me
Who knows someday you might find a way
To set that [?] free
[Chorus]
You see I saw those rainbows
[?]
They wouldn't let us know
That we're not just passin' time
[Chorus]
Yeah I saw those rainbows
[?]
They wouldn't let us know
That we're not just passin' time
[Verse]
Some folks been trying to tell me
That my flame will turn to ash
Man I wish I'd been down
Picked up on some cash
But I've heard tell that a million dollars
Won't buy one small peace of mind
And a minute's worth the things I've lost
Or the things that I might find
[Chorus]
You see I saw those rainbows
[?]
They wouldn't let us know
That we're not just passin' time
[Chorus]
You see I saw those rainbows
[?]
They wouldn't let us know
That we're not just passin' time
