Time Lyrics by Little Country Giants

Fists of Foam and Fury

2009

If you’re too hot standing in the sunshine
Keep on standing and the sun goes away
Time, time, everything’s time
Everything is coming then it's going away

I took a car up to Detroit city
I took the water down to New Orleans
I took the blues to Cohoama county
Passing out seeds for cotton and beans

Time, time, everything’s time
Everything’s better hanging heavy on the vine
Poor man borrows, crooked man steals
Time finds both boys pushing up the fields

Late in the evening I heard him say
All my friends havе gone away
Some werе old, ready for dying
Some were young and in their prime

I may grow old and grey
Might be young and called away
But in the meantime, ill tell you what
I’m gonna make the most of the time I’ve got

Time, time, everything’s time
Everything’s better hanging heavy on the vine
Poor man borrows, crooked man steals
Time finds both boys pushing up the field

Worn makes bodies mixed with mud
Covered grain with fields of blood
Sun still shines, birds still sing
Time and the green grass’ll cover everything

Time, time, everything’s time
Everything’s better hanging heavy on the vine
Poor man borrows, crooked man steals
Time finds both boys pushing up the field

Time, time, everything’s time
Everything’s better hanging heavy on the vine
Poor man borrows, crooked man steals
You can’t win, but time will
