Willie Nelson - Nothing I Can Do About It Now Lyrics

I've got a long list of real good reasons

For all the things I've done

I've got a picture in the back of my mind

Of what I've lost and what I've won

I've survived every situation

Knowing when to freeze and when to run

And regret is just a memory written on my brow

And there's nothing I can do about it now.

I've got a wild and a restless spirit

I held my price through every deal

I've seen the fire of a woman's scorned

Turn her heart of gold to steel

I've got the song of the voice inside me

Set to the rhythm of the wheel

And I've been dreaming like a child

Since the cradle broke the bow

And there's nothing I can do about it now.

Running through the changes

Going through the stages

Coming round the corners in my life

Leaving doubt to fate

Staying out too late

Waiting for the moon to say good night

And I could cry for the time I've wasted

But that's a waste of time and tears,

And I know just what I'd change

If went back in time somehow

But there's nothing I can do about it now

Running through the changes

Going through the stages

Coming round the corners in my life

Leaving doubt to fate

Staying out too late

Waiting for the moon to say good night

And I could cry for the time I've wasted

But that's a waste of time and tears

And I know just what I'd change

If went back in time somehow

But there's nothing I can do about it now.

I'm forgiving everything that forgiveness will allow

And there's nothing I can do about it now
