Songtexte If You Live - Mose Allison

A well, if you live
Your time will come
I say if you live
Your time will come

So child, don't mess with that cotton sack
It's gonna scratch your knees and bend your back
And if you live, your time will come

A well, if you live
Your day will come
I say if you live
Your day will come

So child, don't play with those pots and pans
They gonna soon enough ruin your pretty hands
And if you live, your time will come

A well, if you live
A day will come
I say if you live
A day will come

And when the sun will shine and the crops will grow
And you think that you not gonna worry no more
But if you live, your time will come

Your time will come
