Lyrics

[Verse 1] Up in the morning, out on the job I work like the devil for my pay [Chorus] I know that a lucky old sun has nothing to do But roll around heaven all day (Roll around heaven all day) [Verse 2] I fuss with my woman, and I toil with my kids I sweat 'til I'm wrinkled and gray [Chorus] I know that lucky old sun has nothing to do But roll around heaven all day [Bridge] Dear Lord above, don't you see I'm pining? I got tears all in my eyes Why don't You send down that cloud With the, the silver lining? Lift me up to paradise (Lift me up to paradise) [Verse 3] Show me that river, why don't You take me across And wash all my troubles away? [Chorus] I know that lucky old sun now, he's got nothing to do Huh, but just roll around heaven all day [Bridge] Dear Lord above, can't you know I'm pining? Tears all in my eyes Send down that cloud with the silver lining Lift me to paradise (Lift me up to paradise) [Verse 4] Oh, show me that river and take me across Wash all my troubles away [Chorus] And I know the lucky old sun now, he's got nothing to do But roll around heaven all day, yes, sir [Outro] He's got nothing but roll around heaven all day I say he just roll around heaven all day Now you say it (Roll around heaven all day) Yes, Lord
