Intro verse 1 Well I woke up Sunday morning with no way to hold my head that didn’t hurt     and the beer I had for breakfast wasn’t bad so I had one more for dessert.    Then I fumbled through my closet trough my clothes and found my cleanest dirty shirt   then I washed my face combed my hair and stumbled down the stairs to meet the day.     verse 2 I’d smoked my mind the night before with cigarettes and songs that I’ve been pickin’ but I lit my first and watched a small kid playing with a can that he was kickin’.   Then I walked across the empty street and caught the sunday smell of someone fryin’ chicken and Lord it took me back to something that I’d lost somewhere somehow along the way.      On the sunday morning sidewalk wishing Lord that I was stoned    ’cause there’s something in a sunday that makes a body feel alone.   And there’s nothing short of dying half as lonesome as the sound    on the sleeping city sidewalk and sunday morning coming down.     verse 3 In the park I saw a daddy with a laughing little girl he was swingin’   and I stopped beside the Sunday school and listened to the song that they were singin’. Then I headed back for home and somewhere far away a lonely bell was ringin’   and it echoed thru the canyon like the disappearing dreams of yesterday.       End-Chorus On the sunday morning sidewalk wishing Lord that I was stoned    ’cause there’s something in a sunday that makes a body feel alone.   And there’s nothing short of dying half as lonesome as the sound    on the sleeping city sidewalk and sunday morning coming down.     Outro

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque le sentiment de solitude qui peut surgir le dimanche matin. Le protagoniste se réveille avec une gueule de bois, hanté par des souvenirs perdus et bercé par une mélancolie ambiante. Alors qu'il se promène dans la ville, il rencontre des scènes de vie simple et joyeuse, comme un père jouant avec sa fille, mais cela ne fait qu'accentuer son isolement. Le dimanche, traditionnellement jour de repos et de rassemblement, devient ici un symbole d'ennui et de désespoir, rappelant à l'artiste ce qu'il a perdu. Les bruits de la ville endormie témoignent d'une profonde nostalgie pour des rêves et des moments d'hier.
