Big Things - James McMurtry

I’ve got big things to do

Too soon my life will be through

Got no time to stop and pick up your flowers

I’ve got catchin' up to do

Yes, I’ve got big things to do

Now I’ve got a song here to write

I stay up most every night

Creatin' with hope they will live on forever

I’ve got big things to do

Yes, I’ve got so much to do

Got no schoolin', I been foolin'

This is why I can’t find no job

Now it’s over, no time left

That’s why I’m runnin' so hard

Now, I’ve got a story to tell

Gotta hurry, just ain’t no time left

But the sun will shine bright someday

I’ve got mountains to cross

I’m searchin' for time that I’ve lost

Yes, I’ve got big things to do
