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 roll around heaven all day
Now i got to work for my faimly
Toil for my kids
Sweat till I'm wrinkled and gray gray
While that lucky old sun got nothin' to do
But roll around heaven all day
Good Lord above
Don't you see that I'm pining
Tears all in all in my eyes
Send down your cloud with a silver lining
Lift me to paradise
Show me show me that river
And take me across
And wash all my troubles wash them away
Like that lucky old sun
In get nothing to do
But roll around your heaven all day
Now good luck
Dear Lord can't you see can't you see
That I'm tiring tears all in all in my eyes
Send down your cloud with a silver lining
And lift me lift me to paradise
Show me show me that river
And Lord take me across
And i want to know wash all my troubles
Lord wash them away
Like that lucky old sun
Get in nothing to do
But roll roll around heaven all day
Like that lucky old sun
Get in nothing to do
But roll roll around heaven all day
