Phil Ochs - Time Was Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Time was when a man could live alone
  • A man could build a home, have a family of his own
  • The peaceful years would flow, he could watch his children grow
  • But it was a long time ago.
  • Time was when troubles were few
  • When there werent so many people to tell you what to do.
  • It was a long time ago.
  • Time was when a man could have his land,
  • He could farm it with his hands, he was free to make a stand
  • He could live a life of toil, with his future in the soil,
  • But it was a long time ago.
  • Time was when troubles were few
  • When there werent so many people to tell you what to do.
  • It was along time ago.
  • Time was when a man could have his pride,
  • There was justice on his side, and there was no need to hide,
  • The world was far away, there was truth in every day,
  • But it was along time ago.
  • Time was when troubles were few
  • When there werent so many people to tell you what to do.
  • It was along time ago.
  • (repeat third verse)
