Generate meaning
1
Mr. James sits on a park bench
2
Feeds the pigeons from the crust of his bread
3
And I come around from time to time
4
To hear his stories unwind
5
Cause it helps me clear my head
6
Mr. James says
7
Ten years ago I was rich man
8
Well I had a corporate office
9
You know that down on 17th and Main
10
Somewhere along the line
11
I guess I just lost all track of time
12
And tried to make myself a name
13
[Refrain]
14
Time goes by
15
Just like yesterday
16
Used to be tomorrow
17
Time goes by
18
Just like yesterday
19
Just like like Mr. James says
20
Take these pigeons for example
21
Well they never seem to have
22
A single worry on their mind
23
Well maybe it's because they know
24
That the good Lord is watching over everyone of us
25
'Cause you know that's the secret of this life
26
[Refrain]
27
Don't worry about tomorrow
28
Tomorrow will take care of itself
29
Don't worry about tomorrow
30
Tomorrow will - take - care of itself
31
Yeah!
32
Yesterday I stopped by that old park bench
33
I fed that Mr. James pigeons from the crust of my bread
34
Well I watched the world fly by
35
And I thought all about my life
36
I remembered what Mr. James said
37
[Refrain: x 2]
38
Time goes by
39
Well it's just like yesterday
40
Used to be tomorrrow
41
Time goes by
42
Well it's just like yesterday
43
Just like Mr. James said
