Lyrics I've Lived a Lot in My Life - Jim Reeves

I once had a mansion and lived in my glory
But now I′m down to my last dime
I had a sweetheart but I was unfaithful
Oh I've lived a lot in my time
I fought the grim reaper down in the dark valley
Prayed when the sun wouldn′t shine
I've looked through the bars of a cold lonely prison
Yes, I've lived a lot in my time
I′ve been a soldier and I′ve been a rambler
Once thought that everything was fine
I've put in the cornfields, I′ve picked in the cotton
Yes I've lived a lot in my time
I′ve walked with our Master down in the dark valley
And wonderful peace I did find
Someday I'll journey to Eden′s green pastures
I've lived a lot in my time
