That Lucky Old Sun

Up in the mornin’ out on the job

Work like the devil for my pay

But lucky old sun has nothin’ to do

But roll around heaven all day.

I fuss with my woman, but a toil for my kid

Sweat till I’m wrinkled and gray

But lucky old sun has nothin’ to do

But roll around heaven all day.

Good lord above, can’t you know I’m pining,

tears are in my eyes

Send down me a cloud with a silver lining,

lift me to paradise

Show me that river, but take me across

Wash all my troubles away

Like that lucky old sun,

has nothing to do

roll around heaven all day

Up in the mornin’ out on the job

Work like the devil for my pay

But lucky old sun give me nothin’ to do

But roll roll roll roll yes lord roll around heaven all day.

I fuss with my woman, but a toil for my kid

Sweat till I’m wrinkled and gray

But lucky old sun give me nothin’ to do

But roll roll roll roll yes lord

roll around heaven all day.

Good lord above, can’t you know I’m pining,

tears are in my eyes

Send down me a cloud with a silver lining,

lift me to paradise

Show me that river, but take me across

And wash all my troubles away

but that lucky old sun,

give me nothing to do

but roll around heaven all day
