[William Elliott Whitmore - Put It to Use lyrics]
Your father told you so long ago
That the sky ain't falling down
It's just hangin' low
Your mother made you, raised you up well
She could not save you from yourself
They taught you all they knew
Time's comin', time is comin' put it to use
Your grandma showed you what
Was wrong from right
There were lessons learned right by her side
Your grandpa was a hard working man
With a patient heart and a steady hand
They taught you all they knew
Time's comin', time is comin' put it to use
Well you are not my enemy
Sometimes I fear it is me
We stand on the shoulders of
Those that came before
But we can't just depend on them anymore
They taught us all they knew
Time's comin', time is comin' put it to use
They taught us all they knew
Time's comin', time is comin' put it to use
That the sky ain't falling down
It's just hangin' low
Your mother made you, raised you up well
She could not save you from yourself
They taught you all they knew
Time's comin', time is comin' put it to use
Your grandma showed you what
Was wrong from right
There were lessons learned right by her side
Your grandpa was a hard working man
With a patient heart and a steady hand
They taught you all they knew
Time's comin', time is comin' put it to use
Well you are not my enemy
Sometimes I fear it is me
We stand on the shoulders of
Those that came before
But we can't just depend on them anymore
They taught us all they knew
Time's comin', time is comin' put it to use
They taught us all they knew
Time's comin', time is comin' put it to use
