A standard lie, or common truth*
I don’t know for sure
A cloudy sky, that hovers over you
It’s what you worry for
I know I’ma gonna, lay down and die
Don’t need nobody now to tell me where and why
I know I’ma gonna, lay down and die
Don’t know for sure
That the wind it blows no matter where you are
So hold your place
Stay today ‘cause tomorrow comes for sure
I’m gonna live (I'm gonna live) ‘til I die (‘til I die)
Until the blurry-eyed worry’s gone by Stay today ‘cause tomorrow’s at my door
I’m gonna live (I'm gonna live) ‘til I die (‘til I die)
Until the blurry-eyed worry’s gone by You feel you’re bound, with bills to pay
Or maybe you’re secure
You double down with a baby on the way
It’s what you worry for
I know I’ma gonna lay down and die
Someday somehow, a little later down the line
I know I’ma gonna lay down and die
Why worry now?
That the wind will blow no matter where you are
So hold your place
