Originating as early as 1969, “Biding My Time” used to be called “Afternoon” as part of the liver experimental program, The Man & The Journey. A studio version was then released as the only previously-unreleased track from the compilation Relics in 1971.
A rather straightforward blues song sung...
[Verse 1]
Wasting my time
Resting my mind
And I’ll never pine
For the sad days and the bad days
When we was workin’ from nine to five
[Chorus]
And if you don’t mind
I’ll spend my time
Here by the fire side
In the warm light of the love in her eyes
[Chorus]
And if you don’t mind
I’ll spend my time
Here by the fire side
In the warm light of the love in her eyes
[Instrumental]
