Lyrics

TIME ENOUGH


she grew up in the sweet trees........tall and straight as a pine

the first boy she ever done kissed.......was a son a south caroline

momma's out in the backyard......pullin' shirts off the line

caught em clutchin' in the tall grass.....said your daddy's gonna skin that hide


take it easy baby

all this growin' up

take it easy baby

there'll be time enough....

for love

he moved up to virginia.....took a job in the mines

promised he'd come back for her.....but the bottle became his bride

momma's words of comfort .......she said the day she died

someday you'll find true love......standin' right there by your side


take it easy baby

there's no need to rush

take it easy baby

there'll be time enough...

for love

(instrumental break)

she got married in the springtime.......he was tall and straight as a pine

the first gift he gave to her.......was a son of south caroline

sippin tea on the front porch........sweet baby on her knee

said i'm gonna sing a song for you.........my momma sang to me


take it easy baby

all this growin up

take it easy baby

you gotta walk before you run

take it easy baby

there's no need to rush

take it easy baby..

there'll be time enough...

for love
