leavin' the top 40 behind

here comes another day

and another

i got so many ills and pills

i'm about to smother

hit 39

leavin' the top 40 behind

holdin' on to what i got

i tried to tell myself

it doesn't matter

it's just the time of life

another rung in the ladder

each morning i

look in her sky-blue eyes

the downside of life looks better

that old man standin' on the corner

he should be proud

of those lines on his face

'cos either he's

been laughin' too much

or feelin' too much pain

here comes another day

and another

i sure am glad

i got you for a lover

hit 39

leavin' the top 40 behind

holdin' on to what i got

that old man standin' on the corner

he should be proud

of those lines on his face

'cos either he's

been smilin' too much

or feelin' too much pain

here comes another day

and another

i sure am glad

i got you for a lover

hit 39

i'm leavin'

the top 40 behind

holdin' on to what i got

hit 39

leavin' the top 40 behind

holdin' on to what i got
