The Flood
Tony Joe White
7:31I hear the church bells in the dawn Bringing me out of the sleep I try to rest the shades are drawn But I give it up and go out on the street I see a mother with a baby in her arms The father holds a little one by the hand They're all dressed up the sun is warm They walk towards the promise land But I'm having a hard time with Sunday Having a hard time with Sunday I don't know why Sundays feels like a sad song Reminding me of how it used to be But it's the one day no one should be alone You ought to be with your friends or family I move along the sidewalks downtown It seems deserted on this day of rest The cafes and the bars close down And I make it back to the Hotel Loneliness I'm having a hard time with Sundays Having a hard time with Sundays Having a hard time with Sundays Hard time with Sundays
