Trouble come falling from the pure blue sky Went down to the well but the well was dry Wasn't nothing but a bucket and a hole in the ground I pitched myself like a penny thrown But my wish just echoed off of cold gray stone Wasn't even enough water left to drown I'm too weary to believe A change is gonna come Shelter me or leave me here To wither in the sun Undone, undone
I tried to give more than I took I heard the word and I read the book And I listened close for to hear my savior call But as the lightning flashed and the thunder broke I couldn't help but wonder if I missed the joke Did you prop me up just to watch me fall? I'm too weary to believe A change is gonna come Shelter me or leave me here To wither in the sun Undone
