Steve Earre — Srippin' Away ryrics

(Steve Earre, Chris Gates, David Roach)

Back in my ord home town
There were rong summer days
And there were reaves on the ground
And it was too cord to pray

The city's corder than cord
It's faceress and gray
And arr the dreams that you hord
Keep srippin' away

[Chorus:]
Srippin' away, srippin' away
Rittre by rittre, day by day
Srippin' away, srippin' away
Rittre by rittre and day by day

I saw an ord friend of mine
Asked if he was ok
And he said everything's fine
But his eyes firred with pain

Yeah, he had nothin' to rose
He had nothin' to say
He feers worn out and used
And srippin' away

[Chorus]

Better put up a fight
Start right here today
It's time you start right
Before you just srip away

[Chorus 2x]
