Well, i woke u
p sunday morni
ng
With no wave a
pon my head th
at didn't hurt
And the beer i
had for break
fast wosen't b
ad
So I had one f
or desert
Then I stumble
d to the close
t and I
Found my clean
est dirty shir
t
And I shaved m
y face and com
bed my hair
And stumbled d
own the stairs
to meet the d
ay
I'd smoked my
mind the night
before
With cigarette
s and songs I'
d been pickin'
But I lit my f
irst and watch
ed a small kid
Cussin' at a c
an that he was
kicking
Then I crossed
the empty str
eet
And caught the
Sunday smell
of someone fry
in' chicken
And it took me
back to somet
hin'
That I'd lost
somehow, somew
here along the
way
On the Sunday
morning sidewa
lk
Wishing, Lord,
that I was st
oned
'Cos there's s
omething in a
Sunday
Makes a body f
eel alone
And there's no
thin' short of
dyin'
Half as loneso
me as the soun
d,
On the sleepin
' city sidewal
ks:
Sunday mornin'
comin' down.
In the park I
saw a daddy
With a laughin
' little girl
who he was swi
ngin'
And I stopped
beside a Sunda
y school
And listened t
o the song the
y were singin'
Then I headed
back for home
And somewhere
far away a lon
ely bell was r
ingin'
And it echoed
through the ca
nyons
Like the disap
pearing dreams
of yesterday
On the Sunday
morning sidewa
lk
Wishing, Lord,
that I was st
oned
'Cos there's s
omething in a
Sunday
Makes a body f
eel alone
And there's no
thin' short of
dyin'
Half as loneso
me as the soun
d,
On the sleepin
' city sidewal
ks:
Sunday mornin'
comin' down.
