Reed, Jerry - That Lucky Old Sun Lyrics

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 just roll around heaven all day

Well I fuss with my woman I toil with my kids
Sweat till I'm all wrinkled and gray
While that lucky old sun ain't got nothin' to do
But just roll around heaven all day

Good Lord above don't you hear me pinin'
I got teardrops in my eyes
Oh send down the cloud with the silver linin'
Lift me to paradise

Lord won't you show me the river take me across
Let me wash all my troubles away Lord
Like the lucky old sun give me nothin' to do
But just roll around heaven all day

Well now good Lord above can't you hear me pinin'...
