The Ozark Mountain Daredevils - It'll Shine When It Shines lyrics

The old cat on the roof He could stand a little push Cause he's got nine good lives to live But like my Mama said You only live till your dead And you got to give and give and give Theres a pebble in a pond Going on and on Making waves and tides and ripples and rain Theres a leaf in the wind That don't no where to end Chasing days and waves and wishes and dreams Seems like everyone is out, looking for the sun Singing rain and pain on he who hesitates But it'll shine when it shines You might think I'm wasting time But I'm just a good old boy that's learned to wait Wipperwil's in the Dawn Pretty soon he'll be gone But he's got one good song to sing But like my Daddy said It's in your heart not your head And you've got to sing and sing and sing Theres a window in the wall Looking out on it all Leavin' fears and tears and troubles along Theres a fire in the stove Keeping out the cold Warming wine and winters and babies and homes Seems like everyone is out looking for the sun Singing rain and pain on he who hesitates But it'll shine when it shines You might think I'm waisting time But I'm just a good old boy thats learned to wait Yes i'm just a good old boy thats learned to wait
