Short Life Line Lyrics - Black Oak Arkansas

A fine lookin woman 

walked up to me yesterday. 

She grabbed my palm, 

here's what she had to say. 

Oooh you got a short life line. 

Oooh you ain't got much time. 

But your eyes'll never be blind 

and you're gonna have a damn good time. 

Said yea yea mama 

short but sweet. 

Lot a places to see, 

also people to meet. 

Oooh you got a short life line. 

Oooh you ain't got much time. 

But your eyes'll never be blind 

and you're gonna have a damn good time. 

My life has already been full, 

so I can't complain. 

Yea and after I'm dead 

they'll remember my name. 

But mystic thoughts can only fly 

to another plane. 

That's why when you look in my eyes 

you think that I'm insane. 

Watch while we harness energy 

from the multitudes, 

then ride it bare-back 

on our high energy tunes. 

Now that woman 

no longer held my hand. 

She was feelin my body, 

she knew I'd understand. 

Oooh you got a short life line. 

Oooh you ain't got much time. 

But your eyes'll never be blind 

and you're gonna have a damn good time.
