mipso – a couple acres greener lyrics
i’ve never been so hungry
seems like twenty-two years, i’ve been looking for a fight
never stayed in school for long, couldn’t keep my patience on
never had the motivation quite to get my timimg right
i want my story to begin
there’s a time to save up and a time to spend
i’m too young for the past tense
all this worrying about what might have been
should have been a preacher man
let the good book show me where to stand
in this earthly half-way home
should have been a farmin’ man
teach my boy to plow the land
leave this wicked winter just a couple acres greener when i go
i’ve never been so thirsty to get my soul right
but like a summer bug, i’ve been burned by the blinding light
never stayed in church for long, poplar pews and white folk songs
sunday morning never was as real as friday night
i want to celebrate my sins
there’s a time to save up and a time to spend
i’m too young for the past tense
all this worrying about what might have been
should have been a preacher man
let the good book show me where to stand
in this earthly half-way home
should have been a farmin’ man
teach my boy to plow the land
leave this wicked winter just a couple acres greener when i go
some day they’ll write my name upon a stone
and i won’t be there to see it
up on calv’ry calling me i know they’ll say…
should have been a preacher man
let the good book show me where to stand
in this earthly half-way home
should have been a farmin’ man
teach my boy to plow the land
leave this wicked winter just a couple acres greener
should have been a preacher man
let the good book show me where to stand
in this earthly half-way home
should have been a farmin’ man
teach my boy to plow the land
leave this wicked winter just a couple acres greener when i go
