Sister cries out, from her baby bed
Brother runs in with feathers on his head
Mama's in her room learning how to sew
Daddy's drinking bee,r listeneng to the radio
Hank Williams sings "Kaw-Liga" and "Dear John"
Time marches on, time marches on

Sister's using rouge and clear complection soap
Brother's wearing beads and he smokes alot of dope
Mama is depressed, barely makes a sound
Daddy's got a girlfriend in another town
Bob Dylan sings like a Rolling Stone
And time marches on, time marches on

South moves north, North moves south
A star is born, a star burns out
The only thing that stays the same is 
Everything changes, everything changes

Sister calls herself a sexy grandma
Brother's on a diet for high cholesterol
Mama's out of touch with reality
Daddy's in the ground beneath the maple tree
As the angles sing an old Hank Williams song
Time marches on, time marches on
Time marches on, time marches on
Time marches on, time marches on
