A dark cloud a-hangin' out over my head I woke up this morning to an empty bed Why she left me is hard to say Well, is this fate or just a bad day Is this bad luck or just bad timin' Or is it the lies I told, it's hard to say Can you get back what's gone? They say so If you get down on your knees and believe and pray But some prayers are hard to pray Well some things it's hard to say Thumb up in the air and I'm a-hitchin' a ride Plenty cars passin', but I'm on the wrong side If I cross over, will they go my way Is this fate or just a bad day Is this bad luck or just bad timin' Or is it the lies I told, it's hard to say Can you get back what's gone? They say so If you get down on your knees and believe and pray But some prayers are hard to pray Is this bad luck or just bad timin' Or is it the lies I told, it's hard to say Can you get back what's gone? They say so If you get down on your knees and believe and pray But some prayers are hard to pray
