Jacob And Two Women - Rich Mullins[00:00:02]

Jacob he loved Rachel and Rachel she loved him[00:00:13]

And Leah was just there for dramatic effect[00:00:19]

Well it's right there in the Bible [00:00:26]

So it must not be a sin[00:00:29]

But it sure does seem like an awful dirty trick[00:00:32]

And her sky is just a petal pressed in a book of a memory[00:00:39]

Of the time he thought he loved her and they kissed[00:00:46]

And her friends say "Ah he's a devil"[00:00:52]

But she says "No he is a dream"[00:00:55]

This is the world as best as I can remember it[00:00:59]

Now Jacob got two women[00:01:11]

And a whole house full of kids[00:01:14]

And he schemed his way back to the promised land[00:01:17]

And he finds it's one thing to win 'em[00:01:24]

And it's another to keep 'em content[00:01:27]

When he knows that he is only just one man[00:01:30]

And his sky's an empty bottle[00:01:37]

And when he's drunk the ocean dry[00:01:39]

Well he sails off three sheets to some reckless wind[00:01:43]

And his friends say "Ain't it awful"[00:01:49]

And he says "No I think it's fine"[00:01:53]

And this is the world as best as I can remember it[00:01:57]

Now Rachel's weeping for the children[00:02:08]

That she thought she could not bear[00:02:11]

And she bears a sorrow that she cannot hide[00:02:14]

And she wishes she was with them[00:02:21]

But she looks and they're not there[00:02:24]

Seems that love comes for just a moment[00:02:27]

And then it passes on by[00:02:31]

And her sky is just a bandit[00:02:34]

Swinging at the end of a hangman's noose[00:02:37]

'Cause he stole the moon[00:02:41]

And must be made to pay for it[00:02:42]

And her friends say "My that's tragic"[00:02:47]

She says "Especially for the moon"[00:02:50]

This is the world as best as I can remember it[00:02:54]

This is the world as best as I can remember it[00:03:01]

This is the world as best as I can remember it[00:03:07]
