Up in the mornin'
Out on my job
I work like the
Devil for my pay
But that lucky
Old sun has
Nothin' to do
Yeah, but roll
Around Heaven
All day
I fuss with my
Woman and I
Toil for my kids
I sweat 'til I'm
Wrinkled and gray
I know that lucky
Old sun has
Nothin' to do
Yeah, but roll
Around
Heaven all day
Dear Lord above
Don't you see
I'm pinin'
I got tears all
In my eyes
Why don't you send
Down that cloud
With the
Silver linin'?
Lift me up to
Paradise
(Lift me up to)
(Paradise)
Show me that river
Why don't you take
Me across
And wash all my
Troubles away
I know that lucky
Old sun
He's got nothin'
To do
But just roll around
Heaven all day
(Oh Lord above)
(Can't you know)
(I'm pinin'?)
(Tears all in)
(My eyes)
Send down that
Cloud with the
Silver linin'
Lift me up to
Paradise
(Lift me up to)
(Paradise)
Show me that river
Take me across
And wash all my
Troubles away
Like that lucky
Old sun
He's got nothin'
To do, yeah
But roll around
Heaven all day
Yes sir
He done nothin'
But roll around
Heaven all day
I say uh...
He just roll around
Heaven all day
Now you say...
(Roll around)
(Heaven all day)
Yes Lord...
