Tempted and tried we`re oft made to wonder why could it be thus all the day long
When there are others living about us never molested though in the wrong
Farther along we`ll know all about it farther along we`ll understand why
Cheer up my brother live in the sunshine we`ll understand it all by and by
When death has come and taken our loved ones it leaving our home so lonely and drear
Then do we wonder why others prosper living so wicked year after year
Farther along we`ll know all about it...
