That Lucky Old Sun by Tommy Womack Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Up in the morning, out on the job, work like the devil, like a devil for my pay

[Refrain]
While that lucky old sun got nothing to do but roll around heaven all day

[Verse 2]
Fuss with my woman, toil for my kids, sweat 'til I'm wrinkled and gray

[Refrain]
While that lucky old sun got nothing to do but roll around heaven all day

[Bridge]
Good Lord up above, can you hear me crying? Tears all in my eyes
Send down my cloud with your silver lining, lift me to paradise

[Verse 3]
Oh, show me the river, take me across, wash all my troubles away

[Refrain]
Like that lucky old sun, give me nothing to do but roll around heaven all day
Like that lucky old sun, got nothing to do but roll around heaven all day
