lyrics

Priorities
©2004 kimrea

Music's not my lover, he just follows me around
whispering sweet nothings, sometimes I write them down
But first I do the dishes and then I sweep the floor
First I feed the children, take care of business that's for sure

I got my priorites on
I got my priorities on
I take my time and consider where my decisions lead
I pray to keep my life in focus, I pray to clearly see
I got my priorities on
I got my priorities on

Art is not my mistress, she just visits frequently
I entertain her when I can and meet her family
But first I make the beds up and then I make the coffee
First I clothe the children, take care of business, can't you see


I got my priorities on
I got my priorities on
I take my time and consider where my decisions lead
I pray to keep my life in focus, I pray to clearly see
I got my priorities on
I got my priorities on

Work is not my master, he just helps me pay the bills
I'm happy to be working and thankful for my skills
First I plant the garden and then I bake the bread
First I teach the children, take care of business like I said

I got my priorities on
I got my priorities on

Those who use their talents to seek fortune and fame
Often wind up looking foolish and throw their lives away
First I fold the laundry and then I change the sheets
First I raise the children take care of business don't you see

I got my priorities on
I got my priorities on
I got my priorities on
