(Kris Kristofferson)
2
Well, I woke up Sunday mornin' with no way
3
To hold my head that didn't hurt
4
And the beer I had for breakfast wasn't bad
5
So I had one more for desert.
6
Then I fumbled through my closet to my clothes
7
And found my cleanest dirty shirt
8
And I shaved my face and combed my hair
9
Stumbled down the stair to meet the day.
10
Well, I'd smoke my mind the night before
11
With cigarettes and songs that I'd been picking
12
But I lit my first and watched the small kid
13
Cussing the can that he was kicking.
14
Then I crossed the empty street and caught
15
The Sunday smell of someone frying chicken
16
And it took me back to somethin'
17
That I'd lost somehow, somewhere along the way.
18
On the Sunday morning sidewalk
19
Wishing Lord, that I was stoned
20
'Cause there's something in a Sunday
21
Makes a body feel alone.
22
And there's nothing sure to dying
23
Half as lonesome as the sound
24
On the sleeping city sidewalk
25
And Sunday morning coming down.
26
In the park I saw a daddy
27
With the laughin' little girl that he was swinging
28
Then I stopped beside a Sunday school
29
Listened to the songs they were singing.
30
I headed back for home and somewhere far away
31
A lonely bell was ringing
32
And it echoed through the canyons
33
Like the disappearing dreams of yesterday.
34
On the Sunday morning sidewalk
35
Wishing Lord, that I was stoned
36
'Cause there's something in a Sunday
37
Makes a body feel alone...
