Stone
(ronnie lane)
Well once i was a stone and many years ago Into a pool i was thrown, a many years ago. Time passed by, the pool ran dry, escaped was i. And tempered the beat came a fiery heat, By the aim of a man, who's name was dann, dann the blacksmith.
Well once i was a sword, a many years ago. And my blade was broad, a many years ago. Worn my pride, in a battle i'd ride at a warrior side. And i cut and i killed and was lost in the field, And soon did rust, and corrode to dust, oh my.
Well and once i was a daisy, a many years ago. In pastures green and lazy, a many years ago. But i was hit by goat who fell in the moat, and forgetting to float He sunk like a lead and stayed until dead, But was relieved to find, oh lord, just how kind it all was.
Well and once i was a grub, a many years ago. And i lived in blood red mud, a many years ago. But on the very first noon i became a cocoon that resembled a prune. When the good work was done in the warmth of the sun. I shed my skins, and dried my wings, and i flew away. Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
Well and once i was a bullfrog, had to struggle for survival. And once i was a carp and lived in waters on the mantle. And once i was a man of earth, quoting verses from the bible, Said i played them all, i played them all, st. luke.
Well and once i was a mule, a many years ago. But my master he 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 with an almighty crack, And to his dismay, i passed away, into the blue.
Then i was born a human baby, a many years ago. Well i remember i was born unto a lady, a many years ago. All our hopes they were found on the back of a child that turned out to be wild. Sent the devil a prayer and caused the pope to swear. So i took my leave, to lie and plead, on my way to jail.
Well i've been a tinker, tailor, soldier, sailor. I've known good times and disaster. Oh but now i've found a teacher, and the teacher has a master, And the master is perfection, so he helps us get there faster. Oh it don't need no proof, because that's the truth, and i'll drink to that.
