Up in the mor ning

out on the job

Work like the de vil

for my pay

Lu cky old sun

ain't got no thing to do

But roll a round

Hea ven all day

Fuss with my wo man

Toil for my kids

And sweat till I'm

wrin kled and gray

But that lu cky old sun

ain't got no thing to do

But roll a round

Hea ven all day

Dear Lord a bove

can't you see I'm cry ing

Tears are in my eyes

Send down a cloud

with a sil ver li ning

Take me to pa ra dise

Show me that ri ver

lead me a cross

And take all

my trou ble 'way

Like the lu cky old sun

I'll have no thing to do

Roll a round

Hea ven all day

Lord a bove

can't you see I'm cry ing

Tears are in my eyes

Send down a cloud

with a sil ver li ning

Take me to pa ra dise

Show me that ri ver

Show me that ri ver

lead me a cross

And take all my trou ble 'way

Like that lu cky old sun

I'll have no thing to do

But roll a round

Hea ven all day

But roll a round

Hea ven all day
