TIME ON MY HANDS

COUNTRY POEMS



                   Oh baby

               I've got time on my hands.

               Yeah, time on my hands.

              

               I've been on the road so long.

               I wish I could go to bed.

               The pain in my head is going bong.

               It seems like everything is going wrong.



                     Oh baby.

                   I've got time on my hands.

                   Yeah, time on my hands.



                    A heavy load in a sack on my back.

                    A heavy load in a pack on my back too.

                             OO.

                    For these trips, I do not have a knack.

            It feels like I am driving down a long track.

            It feels like a door has been slammed in my face.

            Whack!

            I'm losing the race.



                             Oh baby.

                        I've got time on my hands.

                    Yeah, time on my hands.



                  I feel like I have been hit in the gut.

                  I feel like I'm in a caved in hut.

                   Every day is the same.

                   I feel like I am in a rut.

                  I am losing the game.



                             Oh baby.

                      I've got time on my hands.

                        Yeah, time on my hands.



          I feel so alone.

          My body feels cold to the bone.

          Banks will not give my heart a relief loan.

          A very loud tone in my ear.

          This life I cannot steer.

          My body feels as if it is made of cracking stone.

          I am a king about to be deposed from his throne.

              

                  Oh baby.

                 I've got time on my hands.

            Yeah, time on my hands.



          I feel so alone.

    I've been looking around and around and I finally found

           a phone.

         Your voice on the end was a wonderful sound.

          Soft as snow and rain falling to the ground.

          It erased all the pain.

           It was sweet as a lime.

         I'm so glad I had a dime.

            We talked a long time.



               Oh baby.

               I've got time on my hands.

                  Yeah, time on my hands.

                  Yeah, time on my hands.
