I ain’t a friend of forgiveness,
And no, it ain’t such a good friend of mine.
I could’ve picked up the phone, and admit that I was wrong.
But the time, you know the time kept rolling by.
So many years I was never satisfied.
Thinkin’ life was never gonna change.
But if there’s one thing I’ve learned, tables can always turn.
Yesterdays gone and tomorrows on it’s way.
So there ain’t no better time than today.
No there ain’t no better time to turn it around.
Oh yeah, you know it’s not too late.
Yeah there ain’t no better time than today.
Every morning that you get, there’s a choice you haven’t met.
Well, here’s some hope you can borrow.
Oh, I’ll tell you something my friend, you can pick yourself up again.
Don’t wait until tomorrow.
So there ain’t no better time than today.
No there ain’t no better time to turn it around.
Oh yeah, you know it’s not too late.
Yeah there ain’t no better time than today.
We can make things better than before.
Trouble it comes and it goes.
You can let go of your sorrow.
Don’t you let up.
Say what you’ve always been wanting to say.
So there ain’t no better time than today.
No there ain’t no better time to turn it around.
Oh yeah, you know it’s not too late.
Yeah there ain’t no better time than today.
Yeah there ain’t no better time than today.

I've been listening to this album, and others, for a while but the live performances of 'Firecracker' and 'Wild Turkey' , as well ad 'Darlin' Cory', at the Transatlantic Sessions show at the RFH was another level. Live music is the best. The whole concert was insanely good. Shame not to hear 'Black Myself' in that setting but it was all near perfection as it was. oldjembo
