Talk about life, talk about death 
Talk about catching every breath 
Talk about when, and talk about why 
Talk about do, and talk about don’t 
Talk about will and talk about won’t 
Talk about the sweet, bye and bye

Well, talk is cheap and times are wasting
Get busy living or at least die trying
Wine is for tasting, roads for taking
Talk is cheap and times a wasting

Talk about right, and talk about wrong
Talk about trying to get along
Talk about the way it all would be.
Talk about now, and talk about then
Talk about everywhere you've been
Talk about being free.

Well, talk is cheap and times are wasting
Get busy living or at least die trying
Wine is for tasting, roads for taking
Talk is cheap and times a wasting 

Well, talk is cheap and times are wasting
