Lyrics

  1. See that sun in the morning
    Peeking over the hill
    I’ll bet you’re sure it always has
    And sure it always will
    That’s how I feel about someone
    How somebody feels about me
    We’re sure we love each other
    That’s the way we’ll always be

Chorus
Oh, we ain’t got a barrel of money
Maybe we’re ragged and funny
But we’ll travel along, singin’ a song
Side by side
Don’t know what’s comin’ tomorrow
Maybe it’s trouble and sorrow
But we’ll travel the road, sharin’ our load
Side by side
Through all kinds of weather
What if the sky should fall
Just as long as we’re together
It doesn’t matter at all
When they’ve all had their quarrels and parted
We’ll be the same as we started
Just trav’lin’ along, singin’ a song
Side by side

  1. We’re all hunting for something
    Something we don’t know what
    ‘Cause none of us are satisfied
    With things we know we’ve got
    We all forget about moonlight
    As soon as we’ve given our vow
    But we’d all be so happy
    If we’d start and sing right now
