If You Live Songtext
von Mose Allison

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


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're gonna soon enough ruin your pretty hands
And if you live, your time will come

Well, if you live, a day will come
I say, if you live, a day will come
When the sun will shine and the crops will grow
And you think that you're not gonna worry no more
But if you live, your time will come
Your time will come
