Some folks' lives roll easy as a breeze
Driftin' through the 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
And 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
Gaze out from a window to a wall
The sunlight written in a scrawl
The gift that God intended for us all
Well, some folks' lives
