That Lucky Old Sun Songtext / Lyric

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



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
