Текст песни The Ozark Mountain Daredevils - It'll Shine When It Shines

(GUITAR INTRO)
The old cat on the roof
He could stand a little push
'cause he's got nine good lives to live
But like my momma said
You only live till you're dead
And you got to give and give and give
There's a pebble in the pond
Goin' on and on,
Makin' waves and tides and ripples and rings
There's a leaf in the wind
That don't know where to end
Chasin' days and ways and wishes and dreams
Seems like ev'ry one
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 old 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 ev'ry one
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 old boy that's learned to wait
Yes, I'm just a good old boy that's learned to wait
