sammi smith - sunday mornin' comin' down lyrics

[verse 1]
well, i woke up sunday morning
with no way to hold my head that didn’t hurt
and the beer i had for breakfast wasn’t bad
so i had one more for dessert
then i fumbled through my closet for my clothes
and found my cleanest dirty shirt
then i washed my face, combed my hair
stumbled down the stairs to greet the day

[verse 2]
well, i’d smoked my brain the night before
with cigarettes and songs that i’d been pickin’
well, i’d lit my first and watched a small kid
cussin’ at a can that he was kickin’
then i crossed the empty street
and caught the sunday smell of someone fryin’ chicken
and it took me back to somеthin’
that i’d lost somehow, somewherе along the way

[chorus]
on the sunday morning sidewalk
wishing, lord, that i was stoned
’cause there’s something in a sunday
that makes a body feel alone
and there’s nothin’ short of dyin’
half as lonesome as the sound
on the sleepin’ city sidewalk
sunday mornin’ comin’ down
[verse 3]
in the park, i saw a daddy
with a laughing little girl who he was swingin’
and i stopped beside a sunday school
and listened to the song that they were singin’
then i headed back for home
and somewhere far away a lonely bell was ringin’
and it echoed through the canyons
like the disappearing dreams of yesterday

[chorus]
on the sunday morning sidewalk
wishing, lord, that i was stoned
cause there’s something in a sunday
makes a body feel alone
and there’s nothin’ short of dyin’
half as lonesome as the sound
on the sleepin’ city sidewalk
sunday mornin’ comin’ down

[refrain]
on the sleepin’ city sidewalk
sunday mornin’ comin’ down
