I've Lived a Lot In My Time

I once had a mansion and lived in my glory

But now I'm down to my last dime

I had a sweetheart but I was unfaithful

Oh I've lived a lot in my timeI fought the grim reaper down in the dark valley

Prayed when the sun wouldn't shine

I've looked through the bars of a cold lonely prison

Yes, I've lived a lot in my timeI've been a soldier and I've been a rambler

Once thought that everything was fine

I've put in the cornfields, I've picked in the cotton

Yes I've lived a lot in my timeI've walked with our Master down in the dark valley

And wonderful peace I did find

Someday I'll journey to Eden's green pastures

I've lived a lot in my time
