	Old Miss Virgy tended bar at this shack out in the hills
	It never made her no money boys but paid of all her bills
	Now she must have been 80 years old but her heart was warm and her beer was cold
	She gave away more than she ever sold, she's smiling all the time.
	I used to sing off in the corner every Friday night
	To a loud crowd of cowboys, bikers and bar room fights
	They were drinking beer, carrying on, not a one of them listening to one of my songs
	But old Miss Virgy sang along, she said she knew 'em all by heart.
	And then one night after closing she poured me a beer
	She said : 'Come on over and sit down you little shit, I got something you need to hear'
	She said : 'Life ain't easy getting through everybody's gonna make things tough on you'
	'But I can tell you right now if you dig what you do, they will never get you down'.
	She said life's too short to worry, life's too long to wait
	Too short not to love everybody, life's too long to hate
	I meet a lot of men who haggle and finagle all the time
	Trying to save a nickel or make a dime
	Not me, no sireee, I ain't got the time.
	Now I ain't seen Ol' Virgy in must have been about ten years
	I've been bumming around this country singing songs for tips and beers
	Now the nights are long, the driving's tough
	Hotels stink and the pay sucks
	But I can't dig what I do enough, so it never gets me down.
	I say life's too short to worry, life's too long to wait
	Too short not to love everybody, life's too long to hate
	I meet a lot of men who haggle and finagle all the time
	Trying to save a nickel or make a dime
	Not me, no sireee, I ain't got the time.
