Lyrics
A one way ticket is all we need
No return, no guarantee
Straight ahead and don't look back
This train is on a one way track
Oh, oh, oh,
Life is a precious thing
Don't waste it all worrying
Time that's lost
Can't be returned
It's another long hared lesson learned
Teach your children not to hate
Hope they learn before it's too late
To get rid of the bad laws, and keep the good
Save the oceans and the woods
When will we all understand
That the future's in our hands
Once it's lost, it can't be returned
It's another long hard lesson learned
I can see the writing on the wall
Open up your eyes and heed the call
When you play with fire, you're bound to get burned
Another long hard lesson learned
(Repeat)
(Repeat)
(Repeat)
Writer(s): John David Anderson, Donna Kay Anderson, Michael Alan Anderson
