If You Live

Well if you live
Your time will come
I say if you live
Your time will come

So child don't mess with that cotton sack
It's gonna scratch your knees and bend your back
And if you live
Your time will come

Well if you live
Your day will come
I say if you live
Your day will come

So child don't play with those pots and pans
They will soon enough ruin your pretty hands
And if you live
Your time will come

Well if you live
A day will come
If you live
A day will come

When the sun will shine and the crops will grow
And you think you don't have worry no more
If you live
Your time will come
