Sammy Davis Jr. California Suite lyrics

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 plow
That field of corn would be deserted now
A man is born but he's no good no how
Without a song

I got my trouble and woe
But sure as I know the Jordan will roll
And I'll get along
As long as a song, strong in my soul

I'll never know what makes the rain to fall

I'll never know what makes that grass so tall
I only know there ain't no love at all
Without a song

I've a-got my trouble and woe
And sure as I know the Jordan will roll
And I'll get along as long as a song
Strong in my soul

I'll a-never know what makes that 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
