When I was a little child,
I still can recall the time,
Ah, those were the good old days.
I knew not a care nor a worry.

When I was at last full grown
I wandered the world around
Seeing how people are hollow and false,
My world was a darker place.

A little love, and just a morsel of luck,
Why can’t the sun shine
Just a little for me?
When in my heart the rain is
Falling down,
Bring the sun around a minute, please.

A little love, and just a morsel of luck,
Why can’t the sun shine
Just a little for me?
To every one our dear lord has given
A bit of luck in living,
Don’t deny me mine.
