In My Time
Eric Bibb
'Been treated like the boss everyone adores
'Been treated like a bum everybody ignores
I've seen it all - in my time
I've been the first, I've been the last
I've taken it easy, I've lived life fast
I've done it all - in my time
I've played in Paris, I've played in Rome
Played on my front porch with my folks back home
I've had it all - in my time
'Been greeted like a tramp, greeted like a star
From Albert Hall to run-down bars
I've seen it all - in my time
I've ridden in Bentleys, I've ridden a mule
'Been idolized, 'been ridiculed
I've had it all - in my time
Life teaches a lesson again an' again
The best thing to be is a faithful friend
I've met my share - in my time
