 The golden days of being young in the summer are gone 
I'm still golden 
But I'm older 
And I feel like I'm feeling it now. 
Both ends of the candle I've been burning are goin' out 
I'm still burnin' 
But I'm learnin' 
How to burn a little slower now. 
Father time 
Mother mary jane 
Jack and jesus 
Sunshine and rain 
Just a little goes a long, long way 
Long live the god-fearing gypsies 
That live as hard as they pray. 
If you're a son of a son 
With the hand-me-down neon dreams 
And your sunday best is 
Your best pair of levi's jeans. 
If you drink like you're 21 
Love like you're 17 
Raising babies and a little hell in between. 
And father time 
Mother mary jane 
Jack and jesus 
Sunshine and rain 
Just a little goes a long, long way 
Long live the god-fearing gypsies 
That live as hard as they pray. 
If you're taking the long way 
Enjoy the ride and make it sweet 
If you're learning the hard way 
It'll be alright, you can take it from me. 
And father time 
Mother mary jane 
Jack and jesus 
Sunshine and rain 
Just a little, oh a little goes a long, long way 
Long live the god-fearing gypsies 
That live as hard as they pray. 
Oh, here's to the god-fearing gypsies 
That live as hard as they pray 
Mm... 
Oh-oh-oh...
