Words of Wisdom Lyrics by Brian Dewan

Words of Wisdom

0

There is wisdom in the proverbs of a bygone day
Much wisdom in the sayings that our fathers used to say
If we could but remember them, they'd save us pain and woe
So listen while I tell you of those sayings, if I may
You never miss the weather 'til the well runs dry
And if you step upon a rake, 'twill bop you in the eye
So save up all your money for a rainy day
And wait, wait, wait, 'til the clouds roll by
You can lead a horse to water, but you cannot make him drink
So take a dose of aspirin if it hurts your head to think
And people in glass houses should pull down the window-shades
And never, never, never bathe in the kitchen sink
For all that glitters, so they tell us, is not gold
And moss is never gathered by a stone that's being rolled
But who in heaven's name has any earthly use for moss
For you can't get any younger when you've really gotten old
