Some Days

Some days worry

Some days glad

Some days

More than make you mad.

Some days,

Some days, more than shine:

When you see what's coming

On down the line!

Some days you say,

Oh, not me, never -!

Some days you say

Bless God forever.

Some days, you say,

Curse God, and die

And the day comes when you wrestle

With that lie.

Some days tussle

Then some days groan

And some days

Don't even leave a bone.

Some days you hassle

All alone.

I don't know, sister,

What I'm saying,

Nor do no man,

If he don't be praying.

I know that love is the only answer

And the tight-rope lover

The only dancer.

When the lover come off the rope today,

The net which holds him is how we pray,

And not to God's unknown,

But to each other -:

The falling mortal is our brother!

Some days leave

Some days grieve

Some days you almost don't believe.

Some days believe you,

Some days don't,

Some days believe you

And you won't.

Some days worry

Some days mad

Some days more than make you glad.

Some days, some days,

More than shine,

Witnesses,

Coming on down the line!

Witnesses,

Coming on down the line!
