Rich Mullins - Jacob And 2 Women Lyrics

Send "Jacob And 2 Women" ringtone to your cell

Jacob he loved Rachel and Rachel she loved him

And Leah was just there for dramatic effect

Well it's right there in the Bible so it must not be a sin

But it sure does seem like an awful dirty trick

And her sky is just a petal pressed in a book of a memory

Of the time he thought he loved her and they kissed

And her friends say "Ah he's a devil"

But she says "No he is a dream"

This is the world as best as I can remember it

Now Jacob got two women and a whole house full of kids

And he schemed his way back to the promised land

And he finds it's one thing to win 'em

And it's another to keep 'em content

When he knows that he is only just one man

And his sky's an empty bottle and when he's drunk the ocean dry

Well he sails off three sheets to some reckless wind

And his friends say "Ain't it awful"

And he says "No I think it's fine"

And this is the world as best as I can remember it

Now Rachel's weeping for the children

That she thought she could not bear

And she bears a sorrow that she cannot hide

And she wishes she was with them

But she just looks and they're not there

Seems that love comes for just a moment

And then it passes on by

And her sky is just a bandit

Swinging at the end of a hangman's noose

'Cause he stole the moon and must be made to pay for it

And her friends say "My that's tragic"

She says "Especially for the moon"

And this is the world as best as I can remember it

And this is the world as best as I can remember it
