lyrics

Oh we dance cross the stage of this world we pass through
and it's all well and good from the audience's view
but the curtain comes down at the end of the show
and we all have to look for a good way to go

(ch) way to go way to go
like the sun on the snow
well we all have it coming
way to go way to go

He wore a t shirt that read "i fish therefore i lie"
and it was the one motto that he lived his life by
he had a smile on his face on the day that he died
with a forty five pound steelhead in the boat by his side (ch)

She was a born-again hippy called herself mama bear
and she sold mophead angels at the local craft fair
she was out in her booth when her heart let her down
with her angels all singing and her friends all around (ch)

In the back of the chapel the old lady lay
like she'd fallen asleep and just drifted away
and they said when they found her what a great time to leave
at the candlelight services on christmas eve (ch)

Oh there's time for all things so the wise people say
but there's never enough at the end of the play
but if we live what we love just as well as we know
then we ought to be given a good way to go (ch)

Way to go way to go
it's a dream don't you know
well we all have it coming
let it go way to go
