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 With cigarettes and songs 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 something that I'd lost Somehow, somewhere along the way On the Sunday morning sidewalk 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 sleeping city sidewalks Sunday morning coming down ♪ In the park I saw a daddy Laughin' little girl who he was swinging ♪ And I stopped beside a Sunday school And listened to the song that they were singing ♪ Then I headed back for home And somewhere far away a lonely bell was ringing ♪ And it echoed through the canyons Like the disappearing dreams of yesterday On the Sunday morning sidewalk 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 ♪ Sleepin' city sidewalks Sunday morning coming down ♪ On the Sunday morning sidewalk 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 morning coming down
