Alabama I Saw The Time Lyrics

I Saw The Time Lyrics

I saw the time 

When every baby that was born

Was wanted and had a place to stay warm

And when the farmers could exist

To feed the hungry in our midst

I saw the time

When the poor could still have pride

And hard work paid off in time

I saw the time

When the homeless had a home 

And the old could carry on

I saw the time, I saw the time



I saw the time!

Dream after dream, scene after time

Time after time, I saw the time



I saw the time

When special kids got a chance

And handicapped could advance

I saw the time

When we walked the streets without risk

And families still prayed, and hugged, and kissed

I saw the time

When nature was so clean

We could eat from the field and streams

I saw the time

And when the bombs would not explode

And all the people got to vote

I saw the time, I saw that time



Oh, I saw the time!

Dream after dream, scene after scene

Time after time, I saw the time



I saw the time

When we went to the moon 

And disaster struck too soon 

I saw that time

When little Samantha Smith was so brave

And made that grin and call

and when the Bears' Vincent Woody

Paced the sidelines and coached football

When John, George, and Martin walked around

I saw the time

When John, Paul, George and Ringo brought the sound

When everybody held hands

And the children smiled, mammas and daddies smiled,

Grandmas and Grandpas smiled, and God smiled



I saw the time! 

Dream after dream, scene after scene

Time after time, whoa I saw the time!
