Lean back and sing along: ~ It'll Shine When it Shines ~

The ol' 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 'til your dead

And you got to give and give and give

There's a pebble in the pond

Rollin' on and on

Makin' waves and tides and ripples and rain

There's a leaf in the wind

That don't know where to end

Chasin' days and ways and wishes and dreams

Seems like everyone is out lookin' for the sun

Singin' rain and pain on he who hesitates

But it'll shine when it shines

You might think I'm wastin' time

But I'm just a good ol' boy that's learned to wait

Whippoorwill's in the dawn

Pretty soon he'll be gone

And he's got one good song to sing

But like my Daddy said

It's in your heart not your head

And you got to sing and sing and sing

There's a window in the wall

Lookin' out on it all

Leavin' fears and tears and troubles alone

There's a fire in the stove

Keepin' out the cold

Warmin' wine and winters and babies and homes

Seems like everyone is out lookin' for the sun

Singin' rain and pain on he who hesitates

But it'll shine when it shines

You might think I'm wastin' time

But I'm just a good ol' boy that's learned to wait

Yes, I'm just a good ol' boy that's learned to wait
