The Day Is Done
(Words, music, and arrangement by kenneth C. Sharretts III)
It’s Monday morning on the boulevard. These days it seems you got to run a mile to walk a yard, but an old man smiles at me even though the times are hard.
Just like me he’s tired of being tired of everything.
I grab my coffee, and a cigarette, and I watch the world go.
See people full of wonder, people full of woe.
Then I watched a yuppie give change to a man with no home.
Yes I believe he’s tired of being tired of everything.
Well was it such a busy day, and are you sorry for that now.
Don’t let your time here slip away.
For what was your heaven could change in the blink of an eye, and you won’t know why. When the day is done better look around.
What you came here for brother have you found.
Now I’ve been driving in this car all day long. The boom of a thumper in bumper to bumper makes me pray DJ won’t you play my favorite song.
Because when I’m singing, my troubles are all gone. It sets me free, so tired of being tired of everything.
Well it was just a busy day, and I’m sorry for that now.
For a thousand sunsets could fade in your eyes when the time is ours.
A song that was sung from father to father to son, and they always say
“When the day is done better turn around to whatever home that you have found, and leave behind the devil to his destiny.”
Leave behind the devil to his destiny.
For what you find in life is what you surely need.
Won’t you leave behind the devil to his destiny.
