Lyrics for 'Stone' by 'Faces'
(ronnie Lane)
Once I Was A Stone Many Years Ago
Into A Pool Was Thrown Many Years Ago.
Time Passed By, The Pool Ran Dry, Excavated Was I.
And Tempered And Beat In A Fiery Heat,
By The Hand Of A Man, Who's Name Was Dan
Dan The Blacksmith.
Once I Was A Sword, Many Years Ago.
And My Blade Was Broad, Many Years Ago.
Worn With Pride, Into Battle I'd Ride At A Warrior's Side.
And I Cut And I Killed And Was Lost In A Field,
And I Soon Did Rust, Corrode To Dust,
Oh My.
Once I Was A Daisy, Many Years Ago.
In Pastures Green And Lazy, Many Years Ago.
But I Was Et By A Goat Who Fell In A Moat And Forgetting To Float
He Sunk Like A Lead And Stayed Until Dead,
But Was Relieved To Find Just How Kind It All Was.
Once I Was A Grub, Many Years Ago.
I Lived In Muck And Mud, Many Years Ago.
But On The Very First Noon I Became A Cocoon That Resembled A Prune.
When The Good Lord Was Done In The Warmth Of The Sun.
I Shed My Skins, And Dried My Wings, And I Flew Away.
Once I Was A Bullfrog, Had To Struggle For Survival.
And Once I Was A Carp And Lived In Waters Ornamental.
And Once I Was A Myna Bird, Quoting Verses From The Bible,
Said "pretty Boy, Pretty Boy, St. Luke".
Once I Was A Mule, A Many Years Ago.
But My Master Treat Me Cruel, A Many Years Ago.
By And By I Was Sick, Couldn't Move To His Kick, So He Took Out A Stick
And Hit It Right 'cross My Back To An Almighty Crack,
And To His Dismay, I Passed Away, Into The Blue.
I Was Born A Human Baby, Many Years Ago.
I Was Born Unto A Lady, Many Years Ago.
All Our Hopes They Were Piled On The Back Of A Child That Turned Out To Be Wild.
Sent The Devil A Prayer And Caused The Parson To Swear.
So I Took My Leave To Lie And Thieve My Way To Jail.
I've Been Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Sailor.
I've Known Good Times And Disaster.
But Now I've Found A Teacher, And The Teacher Has A Master,
The Master Is Perfection, So He'll Help Us Get There Faster.
I Don't Need No Proof, Because That's The Truth, And I'll Drink To That.
