Lawrence, Tracy - Time Marches On Lyrics

Lost my grandpa little while back you ask me he was the biggest meanest sonofabitch you ever met but with a heart of gold took both his legs 3 strokes 4 heart attacks for him to finally pass god bless him and this is on his headstone "Time marches on, love is eternal"

Who would dislike this? Tracy has such a good voice and music

This song is a masterpiece.

Mama is depressed barley makes a sound, daddy’s got girlfriend in another town...but time marches on ! I felt that and I Nd never listen to country! (My dad put me on)

My dad was inspired by this song, sadly he passed 2012, so now this song is one my favriots, just like it was his most favriot, ganna miss you pop

2019 anybody? 🤠

Till the day I die

This is sadly so real

Everything I heard when this song came out is now reality.

It's called life

@Blaine Erp Very insightful!

Need to know the lyrics like poetry, when hearing good music on the radio or even if you own the record, the words can be unrecognizable. With this song I heard something different after many times hearing it on the radio, than what the actual words are. Funny how that is.

What a gem. During my stockcar racing years this song kept me company on the radio on lonely nights in the shop. Lots of times I would just stop and sing along. Good memories.

Older the better y'all not this pussy music today

Time sure does march on.. I remember when this came out.. my boys were little, everything was good.. now my oldest is gone from this earth with the Lord and my little one in college.. everything changes... not always for the best...

I wish this song was longer ❤️

Tracy Lawrence
Sing 🎤 real Good 2019.

I love it when he whispers.

Listening to this as u forward march up mountains

Country is only real if it starts from the heart.

Wow time does marches on

Anybody here in 2019

Grew up on this

Sorry tiff but kys
Nothing personal but why comment that

I swear, swap out a few details or switch them (like Daddy's out of touch with reality/Mama's in the ground, beneath the maple tree), and you have my life in a story. Obviously, for the lovely Tracy Lawrence, this was years and years of time marching on; for me, it took less than ten years for this story to play out. I may only be 28, but sometimes after what I've experienced, I feel very, very old, or at least, older than my age.

Mama sounds like a fucking nut.

From family beginning to end. Wow this song hits close to home man. Rip to all papas and to all the good men who held it down for their families.

then one day you find ten years has gone behind you, no one told when to run you missed the starting gun. Roger Waters.

this song is basically how life is now

If all country was like this and not the new-age old town road sh** you hear on the radio, more people would be fans

Everything changes everything chaaanges

the people who disliked this obviously did not grow up in the south and are not family people

Time does march on!! so quickly

Rest In Peace grandpa, this was your favorite song! It’s been 4 months without you 💔

Awe so sweet

time is a mink

any body like

Man.... what the fuck happened to us all?..

The only thing that stays the same is everything changes. Love this song.

Sad boi hours

Nice song. 🌹

"Time marches on", and "everything changes". To all, Savor every moment, good and bad cause before you know it, you're looking in the rearview wondering wtf happened while you're sitting in your favorite recliner, much older, wiser and wishing for what "once was". DDS

Put the confederate flag back up we can go home or else we might just stay here in Wisconsin our new home :-)

Just don't have hate in your heart.

So nihilistic! I love it

I can recall every memory with a song. Damn it's so easy......

I’m drunk this song is tha shit

I cant get enough of tracy songs ive seen him in person and i can honestly say that he sounds the same like he does on his videos nothing has changed. He is a true and dedicated artist. Xoxoxoxo he always puts on a great show where he goes. I travel a lot just to hear him . and his band is so awesome..

I'd love to see him

@duustin crawford he is amazing and he puts on a very good show worth the money and time to go.

Exactly how I grow Up

Not a huge country fan but have loved this song since high school.

What a story telling song and the tone ofTracy voice is real Country and of course the short stay we are on this beautiful planet ,I’m 67 and I can see more good times coming cheers from down under ❤️😎👍

I don’t know why this song makes me sad. I guess it just reminds me of my inevitable impending doom.

1.2k people don’t understand good music

💙WoW what a great country song. Very powerfull. Tells you just how fast these precious moments we have in our life pass us by. Helps us to think back. And I am thankfull. Life is full or great moments, with hope for more to surely come. Profound meaning to this song. Love it forever.💛

Man, I never knew how deep this song was until I actually listened to the lyrics.

Sounds like John Anderson in this song.

Brother’s wearing beads and he smokes a lot of dope (me too)

The poor momma,

She, like most mother's, is a stay at home and has the shit end of it all...

Taking care of her babes, depressed, being cheated on, and losing her damn mind....

makes me sad cause time marches on we go to bed 20 wake up 50 live life to the fullest we never know when our last day is

I wonder who the assholes were who gave a thumbs down?

This song is soooo sadddd

Shits true

I love this song and I’m only 11

If u disliked this song fuck you

gmoney 95 me👍🏾

Been listening to this kind of music SINCE 2004🍻😜

NAUGHTY BEAVER SENT ME OVER.XXXXXX

Thanks to my Uncle and Grandma for blessing me with an old country soul

Had this music playing in my head but I couldn't remember the words or who sang it. Just when I'm almost asleep, it pops into my head and here I am at 3: 47 am listening to it.

Nice song..everything change's

I was at a public park for a wedding of my friend and I was in charge of sitting there alone making sure no one screwed with anything for the wedding till everyone showed up and we had big speakers to play music for the wedding and I played this song on my phone while sitting there alone.... I was sitting at a picnic table and this lady was there with her kid and she was pushing her little girl on a merry go round and just seeing that little girl smile and laugh as her momma pushed her was really heart warming while playing this song for all to hear

yeah where in the HELL is real country music these days !

Some of the ads are funny

Can't go wrong with Tracy Lawrence or George Strait 💯

Written by the great songwriter, Bobby Braddock. I'm a songwriter of no acclaim ( yet), but I continue to use this song as a "template" of sorts of how to tell a story in the time honored tradition of --- " Make it easy to remember and hard to forget." Incredible!

My favorite song of all time

Her him play this last night in New Orleans. He sounded better live. amazing.

Love this song and why would someone want me off the property after singing my 🎶.

He’s singing about my family 🤔

my furinal song

Oh my gosh I just smiled when the music started playing I freaking love Tracy Lawrence

Truest country song ever written.

Such a simple 3 minute song. Yet touches me so deeply.

2019 🎶🤙

The only thing that stays the same in country music is that everything changes. And unfortunately it's for the worst.

REAL country, not this modern bro country BS.

My last name is Williams and I am a queen because my first name is Elizabeth

This song is super old

Time marches on but this song is timeless

My 1yo son is clapping and dancing to time marches on. Apparently its still a hit with the kids.

Loved this as a child

My mother use to listen to this song all the time. Recently she passed away and all I can think of is when she would be sewing while singing this song. Even though shes gone , time keeps moving forward but I feel forever trapped. I just wish her star didnt burn out.

Monkeyman11909, I am so sorry! RIP to your mom

I love this song soo much and unfortunately My family is goin threw this daddys got another bitch in another damn town ... completely ruining 35 years of marriage but ..... time marches on !!!! 💔😭

One of the greatest Country songs !!

In honor of the spirits of both my Late Older Brother Mike and our dear Late Mother Judy, here's a parody of this song. P.S., I heard "Time Marches On" back in 1996 with Mike, and this parody of it recounts true events in my Boyhood and what happened when I was 20.

YEARS GO BY

Brother laughs a lot, as a baby in a small town. Brother's in the room, jigging for him all around. Mama's raising them alone, but is doing alright. 'Cause Daddy's gone and has abandoned them in the night. As poor Mama still wonders why, years go by, years go by.

Brother's in the park, being pushed on the swing. Brother's pushing him, laughing as they hear the Church-bell ring. Mama's going shopping, having a lot of fun. Daddy's somewhere, hiding from them on the run. Their Neighbor brings over a pie, and years go by, years go by.

(Bridge) So Neighbors come, and Neighbors go. Day turns night, and night turns day. As God's Clock-Hands turn, the future keeps approaching, the future keeps approaching.

Brother's going to be a priest as he kneels to pray. Brother's gone to Heaven, waiting to see him someday. Mama's up in Heaven, with Brother too. Daddy's got a new lover, probably saying: "woohoo!". As the stars shine down from Heaven up high, years go by, years go by. Years go by, years go by. Years go by, years go by.

I LOVE this song!!

Whiskey drinking music.
