No Time to Kill is the fourth studio album by country singer-songwriter Clint Black. The title is a play on the title of his debut album, Killin' Time.

Five of the six singles from the album were top ten hits for Black on the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks charts: the title track hit #3; "A Bad Goodbye" (a duet with Wynonna Judd recorded after they toured together for 1993's "Black and Wy" concert tour), hit #2; "State of Mind" also hit #2; "A Good Run of Bad Luck" was a #1 single that was featured in the 1994 film Maverick; and "Half the Man" hit #4. "Tuckered Out" also reached #74 based on unsolicited airplay. No Time to Kill was also Black's fourth consecutive album to be certified at least platinum by the RIAA.
