Dear Lord up above, can't you see I'm cryin?
Tears all in my eyes.

Up in the mornin',
Out on the job,
I work like the devil for my pay.
While that lucky old sun, has nothin' to do,
But roll around heaven all day.

I fuss with my woman, and toil with my kids,
Sweat 'til I'm wrinkled and gray.
I know that lucky old sun, has nothin' to do,
But roll around heaven all day.

Dear Lord above, can't you see I'm cryin?
Tears all in my eyes.
Send down that cloud with the silver lining,
Take me to Paradise

Show me that river, take me across,
Sweat 'til I'm wrinkled and gray.
While that lucky old sun, has nothing to do,
But roll around heaven all day

Up in the mornin',
Out on the job,
I work like the devil for my pay.
While that lucky old sun, has nothin' to do,
But roll around heaven all day.

Dear Lord above, can't you know I'm cry'in?
Tears all in my eyes
Send down that cloud with the silver lining,
Take me to Paradise

Show me that river, and then take me across,
Sweat 'til I'm wrinkled and gray.
While that lucky old sun, he's got nothing to do
But roll around heaven all day

I fuss with my woman, and toil with my kids,
Wash all my troubles away.
While that lucky old sun, he's got nothing to do
But roll around heaven all day
