Big Men in the Sky

Well I wake up in the morning, try to set my hook

I used to be a settled boy, never stumbled or shook

But now, I've got no hand to hold, no friend to call my own

Well I ain't the one to ask much of big men in the sky, but it's all I've got

So maybe I'll pick up and go, with no thinkin' through

Just sleep out every night and try to forget you

I'd look out on some ocean, wash my head in blue

Well I ain't the one to ask much of big men in the sky, but it's all I've got

Been a-rockin' and a-rollin', reelin' in my time

I set myself up fancy-like, and set a brand new line

Well, I oughta know by now, it comes and goes it's true

Well I ain't the one to ask much of big men in the sky, but it's all I've got

Mmm-mmm

Mmm-mmm

Mmm-mmm

Mmm-mmm

Well, thinkin' ain't no pastime and thinkin' ain't no friend

If all you do is sit around and think about the end

Maybe I will get to prayin' someday before I'm through

Well I ain't the one to ask much of big men in the sky, but it's all I've got
