In My Time

From Beaucatcher Farewell

Music and lyrics © 1979 Bob Zentz

 

1.  Well, in my time, I might have been a farmer  (D-G-D-D)
You know I might have been a farmer in my time  (D-G-D-D-A)
But the only thing I’d have grown was hungry and alone   (D-G-D-G-D)
Though I might have been a farmer in my time  (D-G-D-A7-D)

 

     In my time, in my time

     Well, I might have been a farmer (student, lover, doctor) in my time

     Well, I might have been a lot of things, but at least I took the time to sing

     A song about a farmer (student, lover, doctor)  in my time


2.  Well, in my time, I might have been a student
You know I might have been a student in my time
But the lesson that I learned was a life of songs I earned
Though I might have been a student in my time


3.  Well, in my time, I might have been a lover
You know I might have been a lover in my time
But the only loves I’d find were the ones that touched my mind
Though I might have been a lover in my time


4.  Well, in my time, I might have been a doctor
Oh, mamma, I might have been a doctor in my time
But the only medicine was a song sung to a friend
Though I might have been a doctor in my time


5.  Well, in my time, I might have been a singer
You know I must have been a singer in my time
But I’ve done the best I can, and I sing, therefore I am
I’m proud to be a singer in my time

 

     In my time, in my time

     Well, I’m proud to be a singer in my time

     Well, I might have been a lot of things, but at least I took the time to sing

     I’m proud to be a singer in my time
