Lyrics Once in a Lifetime - Lou Adams

I'd take a walk outside
Where the streets are calm
And the skies are blue
I guess I better abide
Cover my palms
Cause those are the rules
By the break of the day
You check on the news
And turn to the booze
Seperation and segregation
You'll have me singing the blues

There's no escape
Only time to concentrate
So ease my mind
It only happens once in a lifetime

Everyone will have a story to tell
Tell your children you remember it well
The part of our lives where we were stuck inside
And all the people tried to survive

You better keep your distance
To preserve our existence
Tell your family it'll be ok
We'll live to fight another day

There's no escape
Only time to concentrate
So ease my mind
It only happens once in a lifetime

Everyone will have a story to tell
Tell your children you remember it well
The part of our lives where we were stuck inside
And all the people tried to survive
Everyone will have a story to tell
Tell your children you remember it well
The part of our lives where we were stuck inside
And all the people tried to survive

It only happens once in a lifetime
It only happens once in a lifetime
It only happens once in a lifetime
It only happens once in a lifetime

Everyone will have a story to tell
Tell your children you remember it well
The part of our lives where we were stuck inside
And all the people tried to survive

There's no escape
Only time to concentrate
So ease my mind
It only happens once in a lifetime
