  • (ronnie lane)
  • Once I was a stone many years ago
  • Into a pool was thrown many years ago.
  • Time passed by, the pool ran dry, excavated was i.
  • And tempered and beat in a fiery heat,
  • By the hand of a man, whos name was dan
  • Dan the blacksmith.
  • Once I was a sword, many years ago.
  • And my blade was broad, many years ago.
  • Worn with pride, into battle Id ride at a warriors side.
  • And I cut and I killed and was lost in a field,
  • And I soon did rust, corrode to dust,
  • Oh my.
  • Once I was a daisy, many years ago.
  • In pastures green and lazy, many years ago.
  • But I was et by a goat who fell in a moat and forgetting to float
  • He sunk like a lead and stayed until dead,
  • But was relieved to find just how kind it all was.
  • Once I was a grub, many years ago.
  • I lived in muck and mud, many years ago.
  • But on the very first noon I became a cocoon that resembled a prune.
  • When the good lord was done in the warmth of the sun.
  • I shed my skins, and dried my wings, and I flew away.
  • Once I was a bullfrog, had to struggle for survival.
  • And once I was a carp and lived in waters ornamental.
  • And once I was a myna bird, quoting verses from the bible,
  • Said pretty boy, pretty boy, st. luke.
  • Once I was a mule, a many years ago.
  • But my master treat me cruel, a many years ago.
  • By and by I was sick, couldnt move to his kick, so he took out a stick
  • And hit it right cross my back to an almighty crack,
  • And to his dismay, I passed away, into the blue.
  • I was born a human baby, many years ago.
  • I was born unto a lady, many years ago.
  • All our hopes they were piled on the back of a child that turned out to be wild.
  • Sent the devil a prayer and caused the parson to swear.
  • So I took my leave to lie and thieve my way to jail.
  • Ive been tinker, tailor, soldier, sailor.
  • Ive known good times and disaster.
  • But now Ive found a teacher, and the teacher has a master,
  • The master is perfection, so hell help us get there faster.
  • I dont need no proof, because thats the truth, and Ill drink to that.
