You Can Have Mine
by Benny Hester

Album: United We Stand - Divided We Fall

I did a little living, but not to the wiser
For all the brains that I kept under my sunvisor
My boss called me up, said "Son you made it"
I just keep moving up but somehow I can't take it
My friends look at me, they say I'm doing fine
I tell 'em, "I'll take your life,
And you can have mine"

I got a little smarter, I got a little older
I got on down the road, looked over my shoulder
I did a little thinking, that goes to show You
That if I really tried I'd one day get to know You
Well, people look at me, they say I'm doing fine
I tell 'em Lord, You gave me Your love
Now You can have mine

I talked to You and soon You became
The friend I never had, the friend I never had
I stood up straight, put my feet on the ground
Now I turn out the light and close my eyes
And know inside that I'm really glad
You know that I'm gald, You know that I'm glad
Now I'm comin' on, comin' on
Come on home, yeah

I did a little living, I got a little wiser
For all that brains that I kept under my sunvisor
Now my boss calls me up, says "Son you made it"
But this Your job, Lord, now finally I can take it
Well, people look at me, say "yes you're doing fine"
I tell 'em Lord, You gave me Your love
Now You can have mine

Yes, You can have mine
Yeah, mine all mine
You can have mine, You can have mine
Yeah, mine all mine
