Now, it used to be the time, be gettin' two bucks a day
But now we gettin' fifty cent, run 'em down for ['alf our] pay
Time, time is drawring near
Now, can't you see? More and more ev'y year
Now, I 'member back in time, 'fore we got grown
We daren't let sundown catch us away from home
Time, time is drawring near
Now, can't you see? More and more ev'y year
Now, my mother used to say, "The sign will be."
We couldn't tell summer from winter, no more by the budding of the trees
Time, time is drawring near
Now, can't you see? More and more ev'y year
Now, it used to be the time, get a corn crop in March
But now we can't get one in June, and neither July
Time, time is drawring near
Now, can't you see? More and more ev'y year
Now, used to go to the church, just to work for soul
But now we go, talk about one another's clothes
Time, time is drawring near
Now, can't you see? More and more ev'y year
