lyrics

I was born in the fall of a golden age

To a well-healed family

I had eleven brothers and sisters too

But none of them looked like me

None of them looked like me, o lord

None of them looked like me

None of them looked like me, o

Lord the days go by



I found a lover with a soul to match

And I thought we had the very same mind

The years went by in the blink of an eye

And I still don’t even know her half the time

Still don’t know her half the time, o lord

Still don’t know her half the time

Still don’t know her half the time, o

Lord the days go by



I had a little baby with a sweet apple grin

And he really got the best of me

I laid him out in a wide open field

And he grew into a big oak tree

Grew into a big oak tree, o lord

Grew into a big oak tree

Grew into a big oak tree, o

Lord the days go by
