Lyrics

Waves Keep Rollin’ – Mark Bishop Evans, Apr19
Found the old man in his easy chair sitting in the morning sun
And I asked for wisdom he could share from everything he’d done
He looked at me and chuckled then he flashed a knowing smile
Said son you best should have a seat ‘cause this might a take awhile
The first thing I will tell you is I don’t know it all
But this I know for certain you must get up when you fall
And though there’s not an easy way it must be understood
When you’re kind a persevere life turns out like it should
Remember to be grateful for everything you have
And don’t become a person who takes more than they give
And don‘t be sinking anchors in every stretch of sand
And always hold to your beliefs as loosely as you can
The waves keep rollin flowers keep growin the sun keeps shinin down
Seasons keep changing life be re-arrangin and the joy’s still there to be found
So if you keep tryin (smilin’) there’ll be no denyin that your sorrows soon will be gone
You gotta just remember that the waves keep rollin along
You’re going to see some ups and downs and happy times and sad
But love will always get you thru the hard times that you have
So don’t forget to tell your friends how much they really mean
Cause you’re really going to need them most when you face the unforeseen
Chorus
The years have passed and I find myself sitting in that easy chair
And younger folks will stop on by for wisdom I can share
I look at them and chuckle and flash a knowing smile
And say you best should have a seat ‘cause this might take awhile
A couple things for certain but your death and taxes. But I am here to tell ya truly what the facts is
You may think you’re finished with this whole damn thing, but nothin’s really over ‘til the fat lady
sings
Chorus
