margo price - hands of time lyrics

Loading...

[verses 1-2]
when i rolled out of town on the unpaved road
i was fifty-seven dollars from being broke
kissed my mama and my sisters and i said goodbye
and with my suitcase packed i wiped the tears from my eyes

times they were tough growing up at home
my daddy lost the farm when i was two years old
took a job at the prison working second shift
and that’s the last time i let them take what should be his

[chorus 1]
cause all i want to do is make a little cash
cause i worked all the bad jobs busting my -ss
i want to buy back the farm
and bring my mama home some wine
and turn back the clock on the cruel hands of time

[verses 3-4]
when i hit the city i joined the band
started singing in the bars and running with the men
but the men they brought me problems
and the drinking caused me grief
i thought i’d found a friend but i only found a thief

soon i settled down with a married man
we had a couple babies, started living off the land
but my firstborn died and i cried out to god
is there anybody out there looking down on me at all?

[chorus 2]
cause all i want to do is make something last
but i can’t see the future, i can’t change the past
i want to buy back the farm
and bring my mama home some wine
turn back the clock on the cruel hands of time

[verse 5]
still i keep a’running fast as i can
trying to make something honest with my own two hands
and i ain’t got the breath to say another bad word
so if i ever said it wrong won’t you forget what you heard

[chorus 3]
cause all i want to do is make my own path
cause i know what i am, i know what i have
i want to buy back the farm
and bring my mama home some wine
turn back the clock on the cruel hands of time

[outro]
cruel hands of time
cruel hands of time
cruel hands of time
