Before the Sun Lyrics by Jesper Lindell

Before The Sun

0

[Intro]
Yeah, four, three, three
[Verse 1]
I've been running into hard times lately
The past year's been out to break me
Now, I've been praying for a little work to come along
For I lost my job last early May
And baby said she could not stay
Worst of all, she stole my records when she moved away
[Verse 2]
And there's a widow across the river
Whose husband died in the fever
She ain't that pretty, but she's good company
She says she really loves me
But I'm too dumb to see
What life with a good woman like her could be
Oh, she really tried to make me see, yeah
[Chorus]
How we all broke down and cried
The day that Lady Luck up and died
Now, will I ever come out on top?
Will this freight train of trouble ever stop?
Before we reach the sun
Before we reach the sun
[Verse 3]
Last week, I drove out to the lake
To ponder over all of my mistakes
But the fish don't jump much these days
But at least my mind is quiet there
With the trees and the cool, clean air
And I would've stayed if it wasn't that my dog got scared
Oh, oh, got scared
[Chorus]
And how we all broke down and cried
The day that Lady Luck up and died
Now, will I ever come out on top?
Will this freight train of trouble ever stop?
Before we reach the sun
Before we reach the sun
[Verse 4]
Now, the weather is getting cold
The summer turns to red and gold
This hanging on by a thread is getting real old
I might rob old Anna's general store
But please tell her it ain't the money I'm there for
'Cause just a prison cell don't seem so bad to me now
Oh, not at all somehow, yeah
[Chorus]
How we all broke down and cried
The day that Lady Luck up and died
Now, will I ever come out on top?
Will this freight train of trouble ever stop?
Before we reach the sun
Before we reach the sun
