GWell, I woke up Sunday morning
With no wCay to hold my hDead that didn't GhurtD.
And the bGeer I had for breakfast wasn't Embad,
So I had one more for dessDert.
Then I fGumbled through my closet for my cClothes
And found my Dcleanest dirty shGirt. Em
Then I wCashed my face and cDombed my hair
And Cstumbled down the sGtairs to meet the Dday.
I'd smGoked my brain the night before on
Ccigarettes andD songs I'd been GpickingD.
But I Glit my first and watched a small kid Em
Cussin at a can that he was kicDking.
Then I wGalked across the street
And caught the CSunday smell of sDomeone frying chGicken.Em
And it Ctook me back to Dsomething that I'd Clost somehow
SomeDwhere along the Gway.
On a Sunday morning sCidewalk,
Wishing, DLord, that I was Gstoned.
'Cause there's something in a DSundaD7y
Makes a body feel aGlone.
And there's nothing short a' Cdying
That's half as Dlonesome as the sGound
Of the sleeping city sDidewalkD7
And Sunday morning coming Gdown D
In the pGark I saw a daddy
With a laCughing little gDirl who he was sGwinging. D
And I sGtopped beside a Sunday schoolEm
And listened to the songs they were Dsinging.
Then I Gheaded down the street and somewhere fCar away
a lDonesome bell waGs ringiEmng
And it Cechoed through the Dcanyon
Like the Cdisappearing Ddreams of Gyesterday
On a Sunday morning sCidewalk,
I'm wishing, DLord, that I was stGoned.
'Cause there's something in a DSundayD7
That makes a body feel aGlone.
And there's nothing short a' Cdying
That's half as Dlonesome as the sGound
Of the sleeping city sDidewalk
And Sunday morning coming Gdown D
