Artist/Band: Dick Haymes
Lyrics for Song: That Lucky Old Sun (Just Rolls Around Heaven All Day)
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Dick Haymes



Up in the mornin' out on the job, work like the devil for my pay


But that lucky old sun has nothin' to do


But roll around heaven all day


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





Good Lawd above, can't you know I'm pinin'


Tears all in my eyes


Send down that cloud with a silver linin'


Lift me to paradise


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





Up in the mornin' out on the job,


Work like the devil for my pay


But that lucky old sun has nothin' to do


But roll around heaven all day


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





Good Lawd above, can't you know I'm pinin'


Tears all in my eyes


Send down that cloud with a silver linin'


Lift me to paradise


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


That Lucky Old Sun (Just Rolls Around Heaven All Day)
