Jim Reeves – I've Lived A Lot In My Time lyrics

Album: Great Jim Reeves

Intro:-I've lived a lot in my time (I've lived a lot in my time)

Verse 1.
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've fought the Grim Reaper down in the Dark Valley.
I prayed when the sun wouldn't shine.
I've looked through the bars of a cold lonely prison.
Oh, I've lived a lot in my time
[ steel ]

Verse 2.
I've been a soldier and I've been a rambler,
Once thought that everything was fine.
I've hoed 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.
Yes, I've lived a lot in my time.
