Without a song the day would never end
Without a song the road would never bend
When things go wrong a man ain´t got a friend
Without a song

That field of corn would never see a plow
That field of corn would be deserted now
A man is born but he´s no good no how
Without a song

I got my trouble and woe but, sure as I know, the Jordan will roll
And I´ll get along as long as a song is strong in my soul

I´ll never know what makes the rain to fall
I´ll never know what makes that grass so tall
I only know there ain´t no love at all
Without a song

I´ve-a got my trouble and woe and, sure as I know, the Jordan will roll

And I´ll get along as long as a song is strong in my soul

I´ll-a never know what makes that rain to fall
I´ll never know what makes the grass so tall
I only know there ain´t no love at all
Without a song
