In Life My Friend (Live)

[Verse 1] In life, my friends, you pass along You need not grieve when things go wrong You've heard it said, go do your best Though life's sun sinks to the west If you get troubled by some belief Or feel the pangs of coming grief The wind and waves bring relief Till all comes right, then take your Ease [Verse 2] Be not deceived by the toiler's thrift Get what you can as nature's gift Rewards all come in the present slice So don't look for future paradise Throw to the wind all belief in hell Or be called a fool or infidel In life, my friends, you pass along You need not grieve when things go wrong You've heard it said, go do your best Though life's sun sinks to the west If you get troubled by some belief Or feel the pangs of coming grief [?] Just hold your breath, then take your Ease [Verse 1] [Verse 2] Just bury your creed in an oyster shell And you'll be right [Verse 1] Oh, it's getting crowded in here, huh?
