Verse

Jesus)1:

When You feel s ad or under a curse,

Your life is b ad,

Your prospects are worse,

Your wife is si gh-ing, cry-ing,

And your olive tree is dying.

Temples are greying and t eeth are decaying

And creditors weighing your p urse!

Verse 2

Jesus):

Your mood and your r obe are both a deep blue.

You bet that Job had nothing on you.

Don't forget that when you go to Heaven you'll be b lessed,

Yes, it's all for the best.

Verse 1

second vocalist):

Some men are b orn to live at ease,

Doing what they please,

Richer than the bees are in honey,

Never growing old, never feeling cold,

Pulling pots of gold from the air.

The b est in ev'ry town,

Best at shaking down, best at making mountains of money,

They can't take it wit h them,

But w hat do they care?

They get the ce nter of the meat,

Cushions on their seat,

Houses on a street where it's sunny.

Summers at sea, winters warm and free,

All of this we get the rest, but,

Who is the la nd for,

The sun and the san d for?

You guessed it's all for the b est.
