lyrics

Well I ain’t got much but I’ve got time and I keep the bait on the fishing line
Sitting down by the river by the shady pine, honey you can find me there all the time

Oh they say there’s a price to pay for everything under the sun
Oh I pray that some fine day my paying time is done
Well I ain’t got much but I’ve got time and I keep the bait on the fishing line

Well I plant me seeds row by row, I tend my garden but the crops won’t grow
So I pray for the sun and fear for the snow, I work in the rain with a shovel and hoe

Please watch over my garden I don’t want to see it fail
I put so much of my heart in and I really want to eat that kale
Well I ain’t got much but I’ve got time and I keep the bait on the fishing line

Well I went to the kitchen, what was there, opened up the cupboard and the cupboard was bare
All we found were the tortoise and the hare, a little bear cub, and a broken chair

Mary Mary quite contrary how can this all be
I called for my pipe and I called for my bowl but nobody brought it to me
Well I ain’t got much but I’ve got time and I keep the bait on the fishing line
