Some Folks’ Lives Roll Easy « See All Songs

Lyrics:

Some folks’ lives roll easy as a breeze
Drifting through a summer night
Heading for a sunny day
But most folks’ lives
Oh, they stumble, Lord, they fall
Through no fault of their own
Most folks never catch their stars

And here I am, Lord
I’m knocking at your place of business
I know I ain’t got no business here
But you said if I ever got so low
I was busted
You could be trusted

Some folks’ lives roll easy
Some folks’ lives never roll at all
They just fall
They just fall,
Some folks’ lives
