I've Lived A Lot In My Time Lyrics - Bobby Bare

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 once had a sweetheart but I was unfaithful yes I've lived a lot in my time 

I fought the Grim Reaper down in the dark valley 

I prayed when the sun wouldn't shine 

I've looked through the bars of a cold lonely prison oh I've lived a lot in my time 

I've been a soldier and I've been a rambler I once thought that everything was fine 

I've hoed in the cornfield I've picked in the cotton yes I've lived a lot in my time 

I've walked with our Master down in the dark valley and wonderful peace I did find 

But now some day I'll journey to Eden's green pastures 

Oh I've lived a lot in my time I've lived a lot in my time
