[ti:Sunday Morning Coming Down] [ar:Johnny Cash] [al:The Essential Johnny Cash] [by:] [offset:0] [00:00.53]Well I woke up Sunday morning [00:04.15]With no way to hold my head [00:06.60] [00:07.14]That didn't hurt [00:08.21] [00:10.61]And the beer I had for breakfast wasn't bad [00:14.83]So I had one more for dessert [00:18.22] [00:19.98]Then I fumbled in my closet [00:23.12]Through my clothes [00:24.07]And found my cleanest dirty shirt [00:27.30] [00:32.32]Then I washed my face and combed my hair [00:35.66]And stumbled down [00:36.90]The stairs to meet the day [00:39.54] [00:41.58]I'd smoked my mind the night before [00:45.04]With cigarettes and songs I'd been picking [00:49.11] [00:53.90]But I lit my first and watched a small kid [00:57.60]Playing with a can that he was kicking [01:01.08] [01:06.11]Then I walked across the street [01:08.69]And caught the Sunday smell [01:11.09]Of someone frying chicken [01:14.35] [01:18.21]And Lord it took me back [01:19.90]To something that I'd lost [01:22.38]Somewhere somehow along the way [01:27.03] [01:29.21]On a Sunday morning sidewalk [01:32.31] [01:34.70]I'm wishing Lord that I was stoned [01:38.05] [01:41.31]'Cause there's something in a Sunday [01:44.29] [01:47.08]That makes a body feel alone [01:50.22] [01:53.49]And there's nothing short a' dying [01:57.01] [01:59.25]That's half as lonesome as the sound [02:02.85] [02:05.55]Of the sleeping city sidewalk [02:08.53] [02:11.35]And Sunday morning coming down [02:14.56] [02:19.26]In the park I saw a daddy [02:22.50]With a laughing little girl [02:25.05]That he was swinging [02:26.87] [02:31.22]And I stopped beside a Sunday school [02:34.53] [02:35.04]And listened to the songs they were singing [02:39.01] [02:43.41]Then I headed down the street [02:46.33]And somewhere far away [02:47.97]A lonely bell was ringing [02:51.23] [02:55.71]And it echoed through the canyon [02:58.18] [02:58.76]Like the disappearing dreams of yesterday [03:04.15] [03:05.92]On a Sunday morning sidewalk [03:09.70] [03:11.51]I'm wishing Lord that I was stoned [03:15.04] [03:17.96]'Cause there's something in a Sunday [03:21.09] [03:23.56]That makes a body feel alone [03:26.54] [03:29.93]And there's nothing short a' dying [03:33.15] [03:35.39]That's half as lonesome as the sound [03:39.04] [03:41.80]Of the sleeping city sidewalk [03:45.19] [03:47.68]And Sunday morning coming down [03:52.59]Sunday Morning Coming Down - Johnny Cash
