Some Folks’ Lives Roll Easy

Words and music by Paul Simon

Some folks' lives roll easy as a breeze
Drifting through a summer night
Heading for a sunny day

But most folks' lives, oh they stumble
Lord they fall
Through no fault of their own
Most folks never catch their stars

And here I am, Lord
I'm knocking at your place of business
I know I ain't got no business here

But you said if I ever got so low
I was busted,
You could be trusted

Some folks' lives roll easy
Some folks' lives
never roll at all
Oh, they just fall
They just fall
Some folks' lives
