Pace That Kills

Too many parties and too much drinking

Too many sweethearts too little thinking

I love you darling I always will

But honey you’re devoted to the pace that kills

What kind of future is there before you

A wife and children would only bore you

So till God calls you to pay your bills

Your restless heart must travel at the pace that kills

You’re traveling down grade with eyes wide open

And I’m through pleading and tired of hoping

You’re always searching for a bigger thrill

And honey I could never stand the pace that kills
