In My Time

'Been treated like the boss everyone adores
'Been treated like a bum everybody ignores
I've seen it all
In my time

I've been the first, I've been the last
I've taken it easy, I've lived life fast
I've done it all
In my time

I've played in Paris, I've played in Rome
Played on my front porch with my folks back home
I've had it all
In my time

'Been treated like a tramp, treated like a star
From Albert Hall to run-down bars
I've had it all
In my time

I've ridden in Bentleys, I've ridden a mule
'Been idolized, 'been ridiculed
I've had it all
In my time

Life teaches a lesson again an' again
The thing to be is a faithful friend
I've had my share
In my time
