If you ever, ever been down
Well, you know just how I feel,
Oh, lord, I say you, you know just how I feel

Oh, well, I feel just like an angel
Ain't got no drivin' wheel,
Oh, lord, I say, ain't got no drivin' wheel

You don't believe, don't believe I'm sinkin'
Look what a hole I'm in,
Oh, lord, I say, look what a hole I'm in

You don't believe, don't believe I love you
Look what a fool I've been,
Oh, lord, god knows what a fool I've been

That's the way, the way I feel
And I can't have a feel that way,
Oh, lord, god knows I can't have a feel that way

Well, it's your, your time now darlin'
It'll be my time some sweet day,
Oh, lord, god knows, be my time someday

Some people, they think I'm happy
But they sure don't know my mind,
Oh, lord, god knows it, sure don't know my mind

Well, when you see, you see me laughin'
Laughin' just to keep from cryin',
Oh yes, well, I'm laughin' to keep from cryin'

Some people, they don't know
'cause see a smile on my face,
Oh, lord, they see a smile on my face

Well, it's your, your time now
But it's gonna be mine someday,
Oh yes, well, it's gonna be mine someday
