[length: 03:56]
[00:08.89]Well I woke up Sunday morning
[00:11.64]With no way to hold my head, that didn’t hurt
[00:17.10]And the beer I had for breakfast wasn’t bad
[00:20.71]So I had one more for dessert
[00:25.14]
[00:28.19]Then I fumbled in my closet through my clothes
[00:31.81]And found my cleanest dirty shirt
[00:36.51]
[00:39.42]Then I washed my face and combed my hair
[00:42.70]Stumbled down the stairs to meet the day
[00:47.73]I smoked my mind the night before
[00:50.95]With cigarettes and the songs I’d been pickin’
[00:56.58]
[00:58.90]But I lit my first and watched a small boy
[01:02.72]Cursing at a can that he’s been kicking
[01:07.36]
[01:10.12]I crossed the empty street
[01:12.96]Caught the Sunday smell of someone fryin’ chicken
[01:18.65]
[01:21.32]And it took me back to somethin’
[01:24.16]That I lost somewhere, somehow along the way
[01:31.00]On a Sunday morning sidewalk
[01:36.39]I’m wishing Lord that I was stoned
[01:42.35]’Cause there’s something in a Sunday
[01:47.58]That makes a body feel alone
[01:52.49]Oh and there ain’t nothin’ short of dyin’
[01:59.25]Half as lonesome as the sound
[02:04.84]Of a sleepin’ city sidewalk
[02:10.54]Sunday mornin’ comin’ down
[02:14.88]
[02:17.65]In the park I saw a daddy
[02:20.44]With a laughin’ little girl that he was swingin’
[02:27.49]And I stopped beside a Sunday school
[02:30.94]Listened to the songs that they were singin’
[02:35.88]
[02:38.62]I headed down the road
[02:41.17]Somewhere far away a lonely bell was ringin’
[02:47.22]
[02:49.92]And it echoed through the canyons
[02:52.82]Like a disappearing dream of yesterday
[02:59.64]On a Sunday morning sidewalk
[03:04.06]Oh I’m wishing Lord that I was stoned
[03:10.87]’Cause there’s something about Sunday
[03:16.19]That’ll make your body feel alone
[03:21.58]Oh and there ain’t nothin’ short of dyin’
[03:27.72]Half as lonesome as the sound
[03:33.32]Of a sleepin’ city sidewalk
[03:39.88]Sunday mornin’ comin’ down
