A time to be reapin'
|
a time to be sowin'
|
'Twas so good to be young then
|
are calling me home
|
It was good to be young then
|
in the season of plenty
|
When the catfish were jumpin'
|
as high as the sky
|
A time just for plantin'
|
a time just for plowin'
|
A time to be courtin'
|
a girl of your own
|
'Twas so good to be young then
|
to be close to the earth
|
And to stand by your wife
|
at the moment of birth
|
Ooh-ooh
|
A time to be reapin'
|
a time to be sowin'
|
A time just for livin'
|
a place for to die
|
'Twas so good to be young then
|
to be close to the earth
|
Now the green leaves of summer
|
are callin' me home
|
'Twas so good to be young then
|
to be close to the earth
|
Now the green leaves of summer
|
are callin' me home
|
Ooh-ooh
