Without a Song (From "The Bridge") - Sonny Rollins, Jimmy Hall, Bob Cranshaw

Without a song, the day would never end

Without a song, the road would never bend

When things go wrong, a man ain’t got a friend

Without a song!

That field of corn, would never see a plough

That field of corn, would be deserted now

A young one’s born, but he’s no good no how

Without a song!

I got my trouble an' woe, but sure as I know

The Jordan will roll (Roll you river Jordan!)

I’ll get along as long as a song is strung

In my soul!

I’ll never know what makes the rain to fall

I’ll never know what makes the grass so tall

I only know there ain’t no love at all

Without a song!

(I got my trouble an' woe, but sure as I know the Jordan will roll

I’ll get along as long as a song is strung in my soul!)

In my soul!

I’ll never know what makes the rain to fall

I’ll never know what makes the grass so tall

I only know there ain’t no love at all

Without a song!
