Текст песни It Ain't Over Yet - Live at The Hollywood Bowl, Los Angeles, CA - April 30, 2023 - Emmylou Harris , Rodney Crowell

It's like I'm sitting at a bus stop
Waiting for a train
Exactly how I got here
Is hard to explain

My heart's in the right place
What's left of it I guess
My heart ain't the problem
It's my mind that's a total mess

With these rickety old legs
And these watery eyes
It's hard to believe
That I could pass for anybody's prize

And here's what I know about
The gifts that God gave
You can't take 'em with you
When you go to the grave

It ain't over yet
Ask someone who ought to know
Not so very long ago
We were both hung out to dry, and
It ain't over yet
And you can mark my words
I don't care what you think you heard
We're still learning how to fly
It ain't over yet

For fools like me
Who were built for the chase
It takes the right kind of woman
To help you put it all in place

And it only happened once in my life, but
Man, you should have seen
Her hair two shades of foxtail red
Her eyes some far out sea blue green

I got caught up making a name for myself
You know what that's about
One day your ship comes rolling in
And the next day it rolls right back out

And you can't take for granted
None of this shit
The higher up you fly, boys
The harder it is you're gonna get hit

It ain't over yet
I'll say this about that
You can get up off the mat
Or you can lay there till you die
No, it ain't over yet
Here's the truth my friend
You can't pack it in
And we both know why
'Cause it ain't over yet

Silly boys blind to get there first
Think of second chances as some kind of curse
I've known you forever and ever it's true
If you came by it easy, you wouldn't be you
You make me laugh
You make me cry
You make me forget myself

Back when down on my luck
Kept me up for days
You were there with the right words
To help me crawl out of the maze

And when I'd almost convinced myself
That I was hipper than thou
You stepped up with a warning shot
Fired sweet and low across the bow

No you don't walk on water
And your sarcasm stings
But the way you move through this old world
Sure makes a case for angel wings

I was halfway to the bottom
When you threw me that line
And I'll quote you now verbatim
"Get your head out of your own behind"

It ain't over yet
What you wanna bet
One more cigarette
Ain't gonna send you to the grave
It ain't over yet
I've seen your new girlfriend
Thinks you're the living end
Great big old sparkle in her eye
It ain't over yet
