[Verse 1: Kenny Chesney]
Up in the morning
Out on the job
Work like the devil for my pay
Lucky old sun
Ain't got nothing to do
Roll around heaven all day
[Verse 2: Willie Nelson]
Fuss with my woman
Toil for my kids
Sweat till I am wrinkled and gray
But that lucky old sun
Ain't got nothing to do
Roll around heaven all day
[Pre-Chorus: Kenny Chesney]
Dear Lord above
Can't you see I'm crying
Tears are in my eyes
Send down a cloud with a silver lining
Take me to paradise
[Chorus: Willie Nelson & Kenny Chesney]
Show me that river
Lead me across
And take all my troubles away
Like the lucky old sun
I'll have nothing to do
Roll around heaven all day
[Verse 3]
Show me that river
Lead me across
And take all my troubles away
Like the lucky old sun
I'll have nothing to do
Roll around heaven all day
[Outro: Kenny Chesney]
But roll around heaven all day
Up in the morning
Out on the job
Work like the devil for my pay
Lucky old sun
Ain't got nothing to do
Roll around heaven all day
[Verse 2: Willie Nelson]
Fuss with my woman
Toil for my kids
Sweat till I am wrinkled and gray
But that lucky old sun
Ain't got nothing to do
Roll around heaven all day
[Pre-Chorus: Kenny Chesney]
Dear Lord above
Can't you see I'm crying
Tears are in my eyes
Send down a cloud with a silver lining
Take me to paradise
[Chorus: Willie Nelson & Kenny Chesney]
Show me that river
Lead me across
And take all my troubles away
Like the lucky old sun
I'll have nothing to do
Roll around heaven all day
[Verse 3]
Show me that river
Lead me across
And take all my troubles away
Like the lucky old sun
I'll have nothing to do
Roll around heaven all day
[Outro: Kenny Chesney]
