Lyrics
(Ronnie lane)
Once I was a stone many years ago Into a pool was thrown many years ago Time passed by, the pool ran dry, excavated was i And tempered and beat in a fiery heat By the hand of a man, who's name was dan Dan the blacksmith
Once I was a sword, many years ago And my blade was broad, many years ago Worn with pride, into battle I'd ride at a warrior's side And I cut and I killed and was lost in a field And I soon did rust, corrode to dust Oh my
Once I was a daisy, many years ago In pastures green and lazy, many years ago But I was et by a goat who fell in a moat and forgetting to float He sunk like a lead and stayed until dead But was relieved to find just how kind it all was
Once I was a grub, many years ago I lived in muck and mud, many years ago But on the very first noon I became a cocoon that resembled a prune When the good lord was done in the warmth of the sun I shed my skins, and dried my wings, and I flew away
Once I was a bullfrog, had to struggle for survival And once I was a carp and lived in waters ornamental And once I was a myna bird, quoting verses from the bible Said "pretty boy, pretty boy, st. luke"
Once I was a mule, a many years ago But my master treat me cruel, a many years ago By and by I was sick, couldn't move to his kick, so he took out a stick And hit it right 'cross my back to an almighty crack And to his dismay, I passed away, into the blue
I was born a human baby, many years ago I was born unto a lady, many years ago All our hopes they were piled on the back of a child that turned out to be wild Sent the devil a prayer and caused the parson to swear So I took my leave to lie and thieve my way to jail
I've been tinker, tailor, soldier, sailor I've known good times and disaster But now I've found a teacher, and the teacher has a master The master is perfection, so he'll help us get there faster I don't need no proof, because that's the truth, and I'll drink to that
