MANY'S THE TIME
I'VE BEEN MISTAKEN
AND MANY TIMES CONFUSED
MANY'S THE TIME
I'VE BEEN FORSAKEN
AND CERTAINLY ABUSED
BUT IT'S ALRIGHT
IT'S ALRIGHT
YOU CAN'T BE
FOREVER BLESSED
WHEN I THINK OF
ANOTHER WORKING DAY
I'VE JUST GOT TO GET SOME REST
I'VE GOT TO GET SOME REST
I DON'T KNOW A SOUL
WHO'S NOT BEEN BATTERED
DON'T HAVE A FRIEND
WHO FEELS AT EASE
DON'T KNOW A DREAM
THAT'S NOT BEEN SHATTERED
OR DRIVEN TO ITS KNEES
OH, BUT IT'S ALRIGHT
IT'S ALRIGHT
WE'VE LIVED SO WELL SO LONG
AND WHEN I THINK OF THE
ROAD WE'VE TRAVELLED ON
SO FAR AWAY FROM HOME
SO FAR AWAY FROM HOME
AND I DREAMED I WAS DYING
I DREAMED THAT MY SOUL
ROSE UNEXPETEDLY
AND LOOKING BACK DOWN ON ME
SMILED REASSURINGLY
AND I DREAMED I WAS FLYING
AND HIGH UP ABOVE
MY EYES COULD CLEARLY SEE
THE STATUE OF LIBERTY
SAILING AWAY TO SEA
AND I DREAMED I WAS FLYING
WE COME ON THE SHIP
THEY CALL THE MAYFLOWER
WE COME ON THE SHIP
THAT SAILED THE MOON
WE COME IN THE AGE'S
MOST UNCERTAIN HOUR
AND WE SING
AN AMERIAN TUNE
OH, BUT IT'S ALRIGHT
IT'S ALRIGHT
YOU CAN'T BE
FOREVER BLESSED
AND WHEN I THINK OF
ANOTHER WORKING DAY
I'VE JUST GOT TO GET SOME REST
I'VE GOT TO GET SOME REST
