ben franklin must be proud - eric hurst lyrics
[verse 1]
the ship was built in 1923
she was made to walk the ocean
she’s dropped an anchor in five of seven seas
she’s very proud of that
[verse 2]
before computers made the world was it is today
you know she was the way
that pictures and letters made their way across the world
into the hands of lovers
[chorus]
and i would never trade my life (trade my life)
and i would never give back time (give back time)
and i would never trade my life (trade my life)
oh, i love the simple life
[verse 3]
my dearest laura fell victim to her days
about a year ago
she is a looker, all the men would say
as if i didn’t know
[chorus]
and i would never trade my life (trade my life)
and i would never give back time (give back time)
and i would never trade my life (trade my life)
oh, i love the simple life
[breakdown]
and our kids were beautiful
they got jobs in the stock exchange
they made a million dollars
but they spent it all away
on a life of luxury
and ain’t that how it always goes?
yeah
[verse 4]
hallelujah for the great american way
ben franklin must be proud
make all your money then you throw it all away
on a life that keeps you down
[chorus]
and i would never trade my life (trade my life)
and i would never give back time (give back time)
and i would never trade my life (trade my life)
oh
and i would never trade my life (trade my life)
and i would never give back time (give back time)
and i would never trade my life (trade my life)
oh, i love the simple life
[outro]
and i love the simple life
and i love the simple life
i love the simple life
