Ten Years After - Once There Was a Time Lyrics

(Alvin Lee)

Once there was a time I'd rob my mama
For a good meal and a smoke
One there was a time I'd sell my brother
For a dollar, when I was broke

But I'd never sell my guitar
And my strings are always sharp
'Cause if I don't have a guitar
I'll be strumming on some angel's harp

And if I don't get to heaven
And if I go down there below
Better be a guitar when I get there
Or I will refuse to go

Once there was a time, I was hungry
And I'd find my food in some bin
But I'd never, ever sell my guitar
Cause that would darling, that would be a sin.
