Once in a Lifetime

You may find yourself
Livin' in a shotgun shack
You may find yourself
In another part of the world
You may find yourself
Behind the wheel of a large automobile
You may find yourself
In a beautiful house, with a beautiful wife
And you may ask yourself
How did I get here?

Let the water hold me down
All the water loading underground
After the money's gone
Water loading underground (Let the days go by)
Let the water hold me down (Let the days go by)
All the water loading underground (Into the blue again)
After the money's gone (Once in a lifetime)
Water loading underground

And you may ask yourself
How do I work this?
And you may ask yourself
Where is that large automobile?
And you may tell yourself (this is not my)
This is not my beautiful house
And you may tell yourself this is not my beautiful wife
(This is not my beautiful wife)

(Lettin' the days go by)
Let the water hold me down (Let the days go by)
All the water loading underground (Into the blue again)
After the money's gone (Once in a lifetime)
