"It's My Time" Lyrics

(John D. Loudermilk)

Gather round girls, you I grew up with
My old friends that I used to scuff with
Need you round me at this time
You've all had your turn to cry
An old friend stood closely by
Friends of mine stand by me 'cause it's my time.

It's my time, it's my time, it's my time
It's my time to cry, hmm-hmm-hmm
It's my time to cry. oh-oh-oh
It's my turn to cry, yeah, it's my time.

Gather round boys I used to play house with
Come here boys I first kissed on the mouth with
Need your tender words so kind
You've all had your misty eyes
An old friend stood by to dry
Friends of mine stand by me 'cause it's my time.

It's my time, it's my time, it's my time
It's my time to cry, oh-oh-oh
It's my time to cry, yeah-yeah-yeah
It's my turn to cry, hmm-hmm it's my time...
