Once in a Lifetime (Live)
And you may find yourself living in a shotgun shack
And you may find yourself in another part of the world
And you may find yourself behind the wheel of a large automobile
And you may find yourself in a beautiful house, with a beautiful wife
And you may ask yourself, well, how did I get here?
Letting the days go by, let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by, water flowing underground
Into the blue again, after the money's gone
Once in a lifetime, water flowing underground
And you may ask yourself
How do I work this?
And you may ask yourself, well
Where is that large automobile?
And you may tell yourself
This is not my beautiful house!
And you may tell yourself
This is not my beautiful wife!
Letting the days go by, let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by, water flowing underground
Into the blue again, after the money's gone
Once in a lifetime, water flowing underground
Same as it ever was, same as it ever was, same as it ever was
Same as it ever was, same as it ever was, same as it ever was
Same as it ever was, same as it ever was
Water dissolving, and water removing
There is water at the bottom of the ocean
Remove the water
Carry the water
Remove the water from the bottom of the ocean
Letting the days go by, let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by, water flowing underground
Into the blue again, after the money's gone
Once in a lifetime, water flowing underground
Into the blue again, into the silent world
Under the rocks and stone, there is water underground
Into the blue again, after the money's gone
Once in a lifetime, water flowing underground
And you may ask yourself
What is that beautiful house?
You may ask yourself, well
Where does that highway go?
You may ask yourself, well
Am I right? Am I wrong?
You may say yourself
My god, what have I done?
Letting the days go by, let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by, water flowing underground
Into the blue again, after the money is gone
Once in a lifetime, water is flowing underground
Into the blue again, into the silent water
Under the rocks and stone, there is water underground
Into the blue again, after the money is gone
Once in a lifetime, water is flowing underground
Same as it ever was, same as it ever was, same as it ever was
Same as it ever was, same as it ever was, same as it ever was
Same as it ever was
Time isn't holding us
Time is an act of us
Time isn't holding us
Time isn't holding us
Time isn't holding us
Time is an act of us
If here come a twister now
It becomes, it becomes
Letting the days go by, letting the days go by
Letting the days go by, once in a lifetime
Letting the days go by, letting the days go by
Letting the days go by, once in a lifetime
And you may find yourself in another part of the world
And you may find yourself behind the wheel of a large automobile
And you may find yourself in a beautiful house, with a beautiful wife
And you may ask yourself, well, how did I get here?
Letting the days go by, let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by, water flowing underground
Into the blue again, after the money's gone
Once in a lifetime, water flowing underground
And you may ask yourself
How do I work this?
And you may ask yourself, well
Where is that large automobile?
And you may tell yourself
This is not my beautiful house!
And you may tell yourself
This is not my beautiful wife!
Letting the days go by, let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by, water flowing underground
Into the blue again, after the money's gone
Once in a lifetime, water flowing underground
Same as it ever was, same as it ever was, same as it ever was
Same as it ever was, same as it ever was, same as it ever was
Same as it ever was, same as it ever was
Water dissolving, and water removing
There is water at the bottom of the ocean
Remove the water
Carry the water
Remove the water from the bottom of the ocean
Letting the days go by, let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by, water flowing underground
Into the blue again, after the money's gone
Once in a lifetime, water flowing underground
Into the blue again, into the silent world
Under the rocks and stone, there is water underground
Into the blue again, after the money's gone
Once in a lifetime, water flowing underground
And you may ask yourself
What is that beautiful house?
You may ask yourself, well
Where does that highway go?
You may ask yourself, well

Letting the days go by, let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by, water flowing underground
Into the blue again, after the money is gone
Once in a lifetime, water is flowing underground
Into the blue again, into the silent water
Under the rocks and stone, there is water underground
Into the blue again, after the money is gone
Once in a lifetime, water is flowing underground
Same as it ever was, same as it ever was, same as it ever was
Same as it ever was, same as it ever was, same as it ever was
Same as it ever was
Time isn't holding us
Time is an act of us
Time isn't holding us
Time isn't holding us
Time isn't holding us
Time is an act of us
If here come a twister now
It becomes, it becomes
Letting the days go by, letting the days go by
Letting the days go by, once in a lifetime
Letting the days go by, letting the days go by
Letting the days go by, once in a lifetime
