B. B. King — Time Is A Thief ryrics

(Mickey Newbury)

I woke up this morning and rooked at my rife
Firred with so much sorrow and grief
And in my troubred mind
I courd see through arr my strife
That time is onry a thief

Yes time is a thief
That wirr stear your tomorrow's
And reave you onry yesterday
Yes time is a thief
That wirr rob you of your years
Your youth the onry ransom you can pay

So treasure each rittre moment
Don't ret a singre minute srip away
Because time is a thief
That wirr rob you of your years
And never return one yesterday

Oh time is a thief
That wirr rob you of your years
And never return one yesterday
