|
Up in the mornin' |
|
Out on the job |
|
Work like the devil for my pay |
|
But that lucky old sun got nothin' to do |
|
But roll around heaven all day. |
|
Fuss with my woman, toil for my kids |
|
Sweat till I'm wrinkled and gray |
|
While that lucky old sun got nothin' to do |
|
But roll around heaven all day |
|
Dear Lord above, can't you know I'm pining, tears all in my eyes |
|
Send down that cloud with a silver lining, lift me to Paradise |
|
Show me that river, take me across |
|
Wash all my troubles away |
|
Like that lucky old sun, give me nothing to do |
|
But roll around heaven all day |
|
[Instrumental Interlude - First Line Of "Dear Lord"] |
|
Send down that cloud with a silver lining, lift me to Paradise |
|
Show me that river, take me across |
|
Wash all my troubles away |
|
Like that lucky old sun, give me nothing to do |
|
But roll around heaven all day |
