about

This is my version of this song recorded by Chuck in 2017. The original song is a gentle, euphonic duet between Berry and his daughter, Ingrid, furthering the familial essence of a record that also features three generations of Berry guitarists (Chuck, Charles Berry Jr., and Charles Berry III).

lyrics

Darlin' your Father's growing older, each year
Strands of grey are showing bolder, come here
And lay your head upon my shoulder, my dear
The time is passing fast away

There has been many sundowns that I've seen, come by
Since you were just sweet sixteen, and I
I have played these same songs of yesterday, oh my
How the time has passed away

Yes, there's been fame and there's been fortune
But there's been heartache combined
Hear me now as I cry Oh! loving fans of mine
The good times come but not to stay, you'll find
Time will take them fast away

Darlin', hear these words and true are they, my dear
Life can pass so fast away...
