Hands of Time

(Bob DiPiero/Steve Wariner)



Runnin' down the interstate

Coffee drippin' down my leg

Every day I'm runnin' late

Gettin' slapped around by the hands of time.



Next lane there's a pick-up

A girl puttin' on her make-up

Her cellular phone's startin' to break up

She's gettin' slapped around by the hands of time.



Everybody's runnin' a little late like me

The whole world's runnin' behind

Can't seem to get where we need to be

Gettin' slapped around by the hands of time.



Here comes a carpool

Mama's got her hands full

Six kids all late for school

Gettin' slapped around by the hands of time.



Just passed the governor's motorcade

Must've had a flat tire on the way

I guess everybody's got to wait

When you're slapped around by the hands of time.



Everybody's runnin' a little late like me

The whole world's runnin' behind

Can't seem to get where we need to be

Gettin' slapped around by the hands of time.



Well everybody's runnin' a little late like me

The whole world's runnin' behind

Can't seem to get where we need to be

Gettin' slapped around by the hands of time...
