LYRICS:

 

  OH LORD JUST GIMME A BREAK

 

(VERSE)

I PRAYED ON A SUNDAY

GOT LAYED OFF ON MONDAY

WAS LIVIN LIFE THE RIGHT WAY

TIL THE FUTURE STARTED LOOKIN BLEAK

WOUND UP ON THE HIGHWAY

(WITH) MY SHADOW’S TRYIN TO MAKE AN ESCAPE

WISH THAT I COULD FLY AWAY

AND PRAY THE LORD MY SOUL TO KEEP

 

(B SECTION)

I HEARD THAT YOU COULD SEE ME

AND YOUR HELP IS ON THE WAY

THE WORD IS YOU COULD FREE ME

THEN WHY DO I STILL FEEL THE PAIN

 

(CHORUS)

OH LORD JUST GIMME A BREAK

ONLY SO MUCH ONE MAN CAN TAKE

OH LORD JUST OPEN THE GATE

HAVE SOME MERCY FOR GOODNESS SAKE

OH LORD YOU GIVE AND YOU TAKE 

MAYBE THIS TIME YOU MADE A MISTAKE

OH LORD IT’S GETTING LATE

CLOCK KEEPS TICKIN BUT I’M KEEPIN THE FAITH

 

(VERSE)

I CAN MEET YOU HALFWAY

PROMISE ME THAT YOU’LL STAY

SWEAR I’LL DO WHAT YOU SAY

GOT MILES TO GO BEFORE I SLEEP

TRY TO SEE IT MY WAY

OR YA LEAVIN ME WITH NO PLAY

TELL ME THINGS ARE OKAY

IF YOU WOULD JUST HEAR MY PLEA

 

(B SECTION)

MY TROUBLES ARE A PLENTY

MY BRIGHT FUTURE’S ALMOST PAST

THE TANK IS RUNNING EMPTY

BUT HOW LONG CAN THIS ROUGH ROAD LAST

 

(CHORUS)

OH LORD JUST GIMME A BREAK

ONLY SO MUCH ONE MAN CAN TAKE

OH LORD JUST OPEN THE GATE

HAVE SOME MERCY FOR GOODNESS SAKE

OH LORD YOU GIVE AND YOU TAKE 

MAYBE THIS TIME YOU MADE A MISTAKE

OH LORD IT’S GETTING LATE

CLOCK KEEPS TICKIN BUT I’M KEEPIN THE FAITH
