PRESENT DAY JOB Lyrics by: Eugene Walker VERSE 1 This is my story These are my struggles Can't believe I have the strength to complain I’m lookin for sunshine after this rain. As I kneel at the river From which no water flows I drink the mud of poverty And to make matters worse, I can't feel my knees. CHORUS OOOOOHHHHHHHHH This tired soul This soul has taken its toll Still there's hope in the present-day Job. VERSE 2 Some folks don't like me For what I am And that's a struggle all on its own So I pray to the Heavens that they leave me the hell alone And God you promised that you would never flood the earth again so why am I still crying OOOOOOHH, Lord, hear my plea! CHORUS OOOOOHHHHHHHHH This tired soul This soul has taken its toll Still there's hope in the present-day Job. CHORUS OOOOOHHHHHHHHH This tired soul This soul has taken its toll Still there's hope in the present-day Job.
