Just don't know why I keep on tryin' Must be a better way out I hope I find it soon Every night, I just can't keep from cryin' Even my old dog Keeps howlin' at the moon Even my old dog Keeps howlin' at the moon Even the sun, it just a keep on shinin' Pollyanna days when I was a child and on my own Even the tracks, they just a keep on linin' I believe my master is just about to bring me home I believe my master is just about to bring me home Oh, but bless the days and the many different ways People try to love one another And won't you bless the times and the holy light that shine Our cross has been brought asunder Even the sun, it just a keep on shinin' Pollyanna days when I was a child and on my own Even the tracks, they just a keep on linin' I believe my master is just about to bring me home I believe my master is just about to bring me home I believe my master is just about to bring me home
