In Life My Friends Lyrics - Gone Fishin' - Flipper

In life my friends, you pass along 

You need not grieve when things go wrong 

You've heard it said, go do your best 

Though life's sun sinks to the west 

If you're troubled with some belief 

Or feel the pangs of coming grief 

If things go rough and you're in a squeeze 

Just hold your breath and take your 

Be not deceived by the toilers thrift 

Get what you can as nature's gift 

Rewards all come in the present slice 

So don't look for future paradise 

Throw to the wind belief in hell or be called a fool or infidel 

In life my friends, you pass along 

You need not grieve when things go wrong 

You've heard it said, go do your best 

Though life's sun sinks to the west 

If you're troubled with some belief 

Or feel the pangs of coming grief 

If things go rough and you're in a squeeze 

Just hold your breath and take your ease 

In life my friends, you pass along 

You need not grieve when things go wrong 

You've heard it said, go do your best 

Though life's sun sinks to the west 

If you're troubled with some belief 

Or feel the pangs of coming grief 

If things go rough and you're in a squeeze 

Just hold your breath and take your ease 

Be not deceived by the toiler's thrift 

Get what you can as nature's gift 

Rewards all come in the present slice 

So don't look for future paradise 

Throw to the wind belief in hell or be called a fool or infidel 

Bury your creed in an oyster shell, then you will be right 

In life my friends, you pass along 

You need not grieve when things go wrong 

You've heard it said, go do your best 

Though life's sun sinks to the west 

If you're troubled with some belief 

Or feel the pangs of coming grief 

If things go rough and you're in a squeeze 

Just hold your breath and take your ease
