    it so when, according to time and circumstances, one has done

    Moglichste getan hat.]

The Lord had a job for me, but I had so much to do,
I said, "You get somebody else--or wait till I get through."

And He never answered me at all, but I could hear Him say
Down in my accusin' heart, "Nigger, I'se got too much to do,
You get somebody else or wait till I get through."
