Sunday Mornin' Comin' Down

Lyrics
Well, I woke up Sunday morning With no way to hold my head that didn't hurt ♪ And the beer I had for breakfast wasn't bad So I had one more for dessert ♪ Then I fumbled through my closet for my clothes And found my cleanest dirty shirt ♪ And I shaved my face and combed my hair And stumbled down the stairs to meet the day ♪ I'd smoked my brain the night before on Cigarettes and songs that I'd been pickin' ♪ But I lit my first and watched a small kid Cussin' at a can that he was kicking ♪ Then I crossed the empty street And caught the Sunday smell of someone fryin' chicken ♪ And it took me back to somethin' That I'd lost somehow, somewhere along the way On the Sunday morning sidewalks Wishing, Lord, that I was stoned 'Cause there's something in a Sunday Makes a body feel alone And there's nothin' short of dyin' Half as lonesome as the sound On the sleepin' city sidewalks Sunday mornin' comin' down ♪ In the park I saw a daddy With a laughin' little girl who he was swingin' ♪ And I stopped beside a Sunday school Listened to the song that they were singin' ♪ Then I headed back for home And somewhere far away a lonely bell was ringin' ♪ And it echoed through the canyons Like the disappearing dreams of yesterday On the Sunday morning sidewalks Wishing, Lord, that I was stoned 'Cause there's something in a Sunday Makes a body feel alone And there's nothin' short of dyin' Half as lonesome as the sound On the sleepin' city sidewalks Sunday mornin' comin' down
