[Intro]
Oh Lord, oh Lord
I'm tired and weary of pain
Please Lord, please Lord
Forgive me if I complain

[Verse 1]
Up in the mornin' out on the job
Work like a devil for my pay
But that lucky old sun has nothin' 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
While that lucky old sun has nothin' to do
But roll around Heaven all day

[Bridge]
Good Lord above, can't You know I'm pinin'
Tears are in my eyes
Send down my cloud with a silver linin'
Lift me to Paradise

[Verse 3]
Show me that river, take me across
And wash all my troubles away
Like that lucky old sun, give me nothin' to do
But roll around Heaven all day
Just roll around Heaven all day
[Bridge]
Good Lord above, can't You know I'm pining
Tears are in my eyes
Send down my cloud with a silver linin'
Lift me to Paradise

[Verse 3]
Show me that river, take me across
And wash all my troubles away
Like that lucky old sun, give me nothin' to do
But roll around Heaven all day
Just roll around Heaven all day

[Outro]
Just roll around Heaven all day
