There beside my mother in the living room I stood         A7                              D                     Dsus4 With my brothers and my sister knowing Dad was gone for good. Well I stayed at home just long enough D                             Dsus4  To lay him in the ground and then I Caught a plane to do a show up    north in Detroit town. Because I’m older now and I’ve got no time to cry.             [Chorus] I’ve got no time to look back I’ve got no time to see The pieces of my heart that have been ripped away from me. And if the feelings starts to coming I’ve learned to stop ’em fast. `Cause  I don’t know if I let ’em go they might not wanna pass.                  G                        D                    Dsus4 And there’s just so many people trying to get me on the phone. And there’s bills to pay and songs to play And a house to make a home. I guess I’m older now    and I’ve got no time to cry.                  [Verse 2] G                    D                 Dsus4  I can still remember  when I was a girl So  many things have  changed so  much here in my world. I remember  sitting on the front yard when an ambulance went by           A7                                D                Dsus4 And just  listening to those sirens I would  break down and cry. But now I’m walking now I’m talking            D                         Dsus4 Doing just what I’m supposed to do. Working overtime to make sure that I don’t come unglued. I guess I’m older now and I ’ve got no time to cry.               [Chorus] I’ve got no time to look back I’ve got no time to see The pieces of my heart that have been ripped away from me. And if the feelings starts to coming I’ve learned to stop ’em fast. `Cause  I don’t know if I let ’em go they might not wanna pass.                  G                        D                    Dsus4 And there’s just so many people trying to get me on the phone. And there’s bills to pay and songs to play And a house to make a home. I guess I’m older now and I’ve got no time to cry.                     [Verse 3]    G                           D                   Dsus4 I  sit down on the sofa an’ I  watch the evening news: There’s a  half a dozen  tragedies  from  which to pick and choose. The  baby that was missin’ was     found in a ditch today. And there’s bombs a’flying and people dying  not so far away. Now I’ll take a  beer from the ’fridgerator         D                             Dsus4 And go  sit out in the yard and with a   cold one in my  hand I’m gonna bite down and swallow hard. Because I’m  older now  and I’ve got no time to cry.               [Chorus] I’ve got  no time to look back an’ I’ve got no time to see The pieces of my heart that have been ripped away from me. And if the feelings starts to coming I’ve learned to stop ’em fast. `Cause  I don’t know if I let ’em go they might not wanna pass.                  G                        D                    Dsus4 And there’s just so many people trying to get me on the phone. And there’s bills to pay and songs to play And a house to make a home. I guess I’m older now    and I’ve got no time to cry.              [Outro] I guess I’m  older now  and I just  ain’t got no time to cry.   No time to cry   no time to cry   no time to cry

La chanson évoque le passage du temps et la manière dont les épreuves de la vie, comme la perte d'un être cher, nous poussent à avancer malgré la douleur. Le narrateur, après avoir perdu son père, ressent le besoin de rester occupé et de refouler ses émotions, face aux responsabilités et aux nombreuses attentes qui l'entourent. Elle souligne cette lutte entre le chagrin et le quotidien, où chaque moment est une opportunité de se distraire plutôt que de s'apitoyer. Dans ce contexte, l'artiste partage une réalité où la vie continue à avancer, peu importe les difficultés. Cette chanson résonne profondément avec ceux qui ont été confrontés à des pertes et qui tentent de naviguer à travers le tumulte de la vie tout en gardant une certaine contenance.
