Little John took the easy way He said bye bye to the light of day He didn't need a gun and all He went flying and he took a fall There ain't no easy way I said there ain't no easy way, no no no I could have told you there's no easy way You've got to face it there's no easy way, no no no Little Ann took the easy way She said take the money and run away Lie down and look away Save the money for a rainy day There ain't no easy way I said there ain't no easy way Every day is a rainy day You are so lovely, you are so beautiful Please don't cry, please don't be miserable You may have problems and you may want to die But please don't worry, let it all pa** by There's no easy way to shake off sorrow But maybe the only way is to think about tomorrow
