"Funny How Time Slips Away" lyrics - DR. JOHN

[Intro:]
One, two, three, four

Well, hello there
My, it's been a long, long time
How I'm doing?
I guess that I'm doing fine
It's been so long now since I saw you
Was only yesterday
Ain't it funny how time slip right away?

How's your new love?
I hope he's doing fine
I heard you told him
That you'd love him 'til the end of time
Now that's the same thing you told me
Seem like just the other day
Ain't it's surprising how time just slips right on away? (Time slips away)

I gotta go now
Guess I'll see you around
Don't know when, though
Never know when I'll be back in town
It's the same thing that you saw in him
In time, you're gonna pay
Ain't it's surprising? Time just slips right on away (Time slips away)

[Outro:]
Ain't it surprising how time just slips right on away?
