When I hear the music
Lord gonna let it play
Something like that

Did you ever get up on the wrong side of bed
With an achin' head and just fall apart?
You're runnin' late, the boss is bitchin'
It's cold outside and the car won't start
Well, I don't mean to bitch, I swear
'Cause we all got our cross to bear

But when I hear the music
All my troubles just fade away
When I hear the music
Let it play, just let it play
When I hear the music
Sure as darkness, I see the day
When I hear the music
Let it play, let it play

Life's just rented space, getting laid to waste
When the lines on my face say, "Growing older"
Just a stitch in time gonna save my mind
When the weight of the world lies on my shoulder
Yeah, well soon I won't have a place to fit
But I'll cross that bridge when I come to it

But when I hear the music
All my troubles just fade away
When I hear the music
Let it play, just let it play
When I hear the music
Sure as darkness, I see the day
When I hear the music
Let it play, let it play

You gotta let it play
I'll just sing that one
I heard about it all
I like that

When I hear the music
The Lord gonna let it play
When I hear the music
The Lord gonna let it play, let it play, let it play
Let it play, let it play, let it play

When I hear the music
All my troubles just fade away
When I hear the music
Let it play, just let it play
When I hear the music
Sure as darkness, I see the day
When I hear the music
Let it play, let it play

When I hear the music
All my troubles just fade away
When I hear the music
Let it play, just let it play
When I hear the music
Sure as darkness, I see the day
When I hear the music
Let it play, let it play

When I hear the music
Just got, got, got to hear me
When I hear the music
Let it play, let it play
When I hear the music
Gotta listen to man, listen to man
When I hear the music
Let it play, let it play, yeah
