I've hauled a lot of hinges on a lot of swinging gates
And I've cored many seeds from some mighty juicy grapes
But I've turned a lot of corners just a little bit too late
On my way through this world of mine On my way through this world
I had to pass by your house So part of my life was wasted there
But I've cored a lot of hinges on a lot of swinging gates

And I've lived many times on the thin side of a dime
On my way through this world of mine
I've crossed many valleys But I always find
Another mountain
But I've always found




A higher decline
I've wasted so much time Where the sun never shines
On my way through this world of mine
But you know if I could crawl back in my cradle
Walk this rocky road again
I'd smile at every detour That's waiting around the bend
Cause you gotta taste the bitter To appreciate the sweet
Takes the combination to make life complete
Yeah, I've hauled a lot of hinges on a lot of swinging gates
And I've cored many seeds from some mighty juicy grapes
And I've cored many seeds from some mighty juicy grapes
But I've turned a lot of corners just a little bit too late
On my way through this world of mine
I've crossed many valleys But I always find

Always find
Another mountain
Much higher to climb
I've wasted so much time Where the sun never shines
On my way through this world of mine
