The Byrds     Just A Season      written by Roger McGuinn/Jacques Levy

                                              
If all my days were hills to climb and circles without reason
                                         
If all I was just passing time my life was just a season
                                                   
Dares and dreams and silly schemes and fillies running freely
                                                       
I was young and there was no song that didn't sound appealing
                                            
I'd have my fun with a shy girl and maybe hop a train
                                       
And I'd look  back at her standing in the rain
                                              ^?
Dirty hands and root beer stands and money like a river
                                                      
Making deals to see how it feels to get more than you're giving
                                                     
I'd have my fun with a gamblin man and bluff him with my face
                                  
And it's drinks for everybody in the place
                                                  
If all my days were hills to climb and circles without reason
                                         
If all I was just passing time my life was just a season
                                                
Shouting crowds and mummers shrouds and people going crazy
                                                   
Always said what was in their heads it surely was amazing
                                          
I had my fun in the bull ring and never got a scar
                           
It really wasn't hard to be a star
                                              
If all my days were hills to climb and circles without reason
                                         
If all I was just passing time my life was just a season
