Dear Lord above, don't you see I'm pinin'
I got tears all in my eyes
Why don't you send down that cloud
With a silver linin'
Lift me to paradise
Show me that river
Why don't you take me across
And wash all my troubles away
I know that lucky old sun, he's got nothin' to do
But just roll around heaven all dayGood Lord above, don'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
And take me across
Wash all my troubles away
I know that lucky old sun, he's got nothin' to do
Roll around heaven all dayHe got nothing but roll around heaven all day
I say he just roll around heaven all dayRoll around heaven all day
