That Lucky Old Sun Lyrics - Dave Dudley

Up in the morning out to the fields I work like a devil for my pay 

But that lucky old sun ain't got nothing to do but roll around heaven all day 

Well I fuss with my woman and I toil for my kids I sweat till I'm wrinkled and gray 

But that lucky old sun ain't got nothing to do but roll around heaven all day 

Oh Lord above can't you see I'm pinin' tears are in my eyes 

Send down my cloud with that silvery linin' and left me to paradise 

Then show me that river and take me across wash all my troubles away 

Like that lucky old sun give me nothing to do but roll around heaven all day 

[ ac.guitar ] 

Show me that river...
