歌词与中文翻译
Up in the morning
太阳他高悬天穹，
Out on the job
外出巡视，
Work like the devil for my pay
我像个恶鬼、为了薪水兀兀劳累。
But that lucky old sun has nothing to do
但那幸运的老太阳无所事事，
But roll around heaven all day
只是在天际转去又转回。
Fuss with my woman, toil for my kids
我为妻儿苦干，
Sweat till I'm wrinkled and gray
汗流如血、直到满是皱纹、皮肤灰暗。
While that lucky old sun has nothing to do
而那幸运的老太阳无所事事，
But roll around heaven all day
只是在天际转去又转回。
Good Lord above can't you know I'm crying
仁主在上，你听不见我的哭泣吗？
Tears are in my eyes
我的泪簌簌流，
Send down a cloud with a silver lining
降下白云和银绳，
Left me to paradise
带我升上天堂。
Show me that river
带我看看那奔腾的河流，
Take me across
带我走向自由。
And take all my troubles away
洗尽苦难，
Like the lucky old sun I'll have nothing to do
就像那幸运的老太阳，高贵地无所事事，
Will roll around Heaven all day
只是在天际转去又转回。
All lord above, can't you know I'm crying
仁主在上，你听不见我的哭泣吗？
Tears are in my eyes
我的泪簌簌流，
Send down a cloud with silver lining
降下白云和银绳，
Left me to paradise
带我升上天堂。
Show me a river
带我看看那奔腾的河流，
Take me across, and wash all my troubles away
带我渡河，洗尽苦难，
Like that lucky old sun I'll have nothing to do

Will roll around Heaven all day
只是在天际转去又转回。
