THAT LUCKY OLD SUN Up in the morning, out on the job Work like the devil for my pay But that lucky old sun got nothing to do But roll around heaven all day I work for my woman, toil for my kids Sweat 'til I'm wrinkled and gray But that lucky old sun got nothing to do But roll around heaven all day Oh, Lord above, can't you hear, hear me cryin' Tears rollin' down my eyes Send for the cloud, send for the cloud with the silver linin' Take me, take me to paradise Show me that river, take me across Wash all my troubles away Like that lucky old sun give me nothing to do but roll around heaven all day

On June 29, 2000 Bob performed "THAT LUCKY OLD SUN" for the first time since 1995 (fourth time since 1986). Even though it has been performed but once in recent years, the message of this song is clear and fits perfectly within the context of other songs he performs more often. Biblical references: ~ Psalms 102 ~ Hear my prayer, O Lord; let my cry come to you! Do not hide your face from me in the day of my distress! Incline your ear to me; answer me speedily in the day when I call! ~ Psalms 39 ~ "Hear my prayer, O Lord, and give ear to my cry; hold not your peace at my tears! For I am a sojourner with you, a guest, like all my fathers. |
