don't catch up to me

Toss the cart before you skip the line
Just like I tell you I do all the time
I swear I'll tell you 'till you get it right
Give your life only to get it back
You set it down but on an empty rack
If you keep it up, you'll have a heart attack
Just like our dad, he said

Don't catch up to me
Don't catch up to me

Turn the page before you give it up
You can write that down until you get enough
Used to write that down so I could pick it up
Take the picture, hang it on the wall
And dont forget to give our dad a call
He's been doing better since he had the fall
Don't be like mom 'cause she says

Won't catch up to me
Won't catch up to me
Don't catch up to me
Don't catch up to me
