[00:00:01] Written by：Ronnie Lane

[00:00:31] Well once I was a stone many years ago

[00:00:35] Into a pool was thrown

[00:00:38] Many years ago

[00:00:40] Time went by and the pool ran dry

[00:00:42] Excavated was I

[00:00:43] And tempered and beat in the fiery heat

[00:00:45] By the hand of a man

[00:00:47] Whose name was Dan

[00:00:50] Dan the blacksmith

[00:00:55] Well once I was a daisy

[00:00:57] Many years ago

[00:00:59] In pastures green and lazy many years ago

[00:01:03] But I was et by a goat who fell in a moat

[00:01:05] And forgetting to float he

[00:01:07] Sunk like a lead and stayed until dead

[00:01:09] And was relieved to find

[00:01:11] Just how kind

[00:01:14] It all was

[00:01:18] Well once I was a bullfrog

[00:01:20] Had to struggle for survival

[00:01:23] And once I was a carp and

[00:01:25] Lived in waters on the meadow

[00:01:27] And once I was a mynah bird

[00:01:29] Quoting verses from the Bible

[00:01:31] I said pretty boy

[00:01:34] A pretty boy

[00:01:36] Saint Luke

[00:02:29] Then I was born a human baby

[00:02:32] Many years ago

[00:02:34] I remember I was born unto a lady

[00:02:36] Many years ago

[00:02:38] All our hopes were piled on the back of a child

[00:02:40] Who turned out to be wild

[00:02:41] Sent the devil a prayer

[00:02:42] Caused the parson to swear so I took my leave

[00:02:46] To lie and thieve on

[00:02:48] My way to jail

[00:02:52] Well I've been a tinker

[00:02:54] Tailor soldier sailor

[00:02:55] Known good times and disaster

[00:02:57] But now I have a teacher

[00:02:59] And my teacher has a master

[00:03:02] And the master is perfection

[00:03:04] So he'll help us get there faster

[00:03:06] Don't need no proof

[00:03:08] 'Cause that's the truth

[00:03:10] And I'll drink to that
