Sunday Best
Monday
Lost the harvest
It was flattened by the hailstones
Now
I gotta farm again somewhere else
But if I plant one fine grain
The harvest surely grows again
Yeah, I'm gonna figure it out
Find
A better place now for ourselves
You can try me as you please
It's not gonna get to me
I'm gonna wear my Sunday best again
It's a plain brown suit
With my battered leather boots
And I bought it with my money
Wore it for my honeymoon
And I'm gonna dress for the occasion
Yeah, I'm gonna figure it out
Gonna wear my Sunday best
'Til it wears out
On Tuesday
Spent the dollar
I had sewn into the mattress
It was lost
Like pollen in a springtime wind
But if I earn one shiny penny
It'll be the first of many
Yeah, I'm gonna figure it out
And I'll earn
Another penny I can sow back in
You can try me as you please
It's not gonna get to me
I'm gonna wear my Sunday best again
It's a plain brown suit
With my battered leather boots
And I bought it with my money
Wore it for my honeymoon
And I'm gonna dress for the occasion
Yeah, I'm gonna figure it out
Gonna wear my Sunday best
'Til it wears out
Someday
I'll have grandkids
Who will sing to me on Sundays
Maybe then
I might let myself take a rest
But if the harvest don't come finely
And the pennies aren't so shiny
Well, I'll just figure it out
And I'll find
An occasion for my Sunday best
You can try me as you please
It's not gonna get to me
I'm gonna wear my Sunday best again
It's a plain brown suit
With my battered leather boots
And I bought it with my money
Wore it for my honeymoon
And I'm gonna dress for the occasion
Yeah, I'm gonna figure it out
Gonna wear my Sunday best
'Til it wears out
Gonna wear my Sunday best
'Til it wears out
Gonna wear my Sunday best
'Til it wears out
Lost the harvest
It was flattened by the hailstones
Now
I gotta farm again somewhere else
But if I plant one fine grain
The harvest surely grows again
Yeah, I'm gonna figure it out

A better place now for ourselves
You can try me as you please
It's not gonna get to me
I'm gonna wear my Sunday best again

'Til it wears out
Gonna wear my Sunday best
'Til it wears out
