Ever feel kinda down and out,
you don't know just what to do--

Livin' all of your days in darkness

let the sun shine through--

Ever feel that somehow, somewhere,
you've lost your way--

And if you don't get help quick
you won't make it through the day--

Could you call on Lady Day,
Could you call on John Coltrane
Now ‘cause they'll
They'll wash your troubles
Your troubles your troubles
Your troubles away!

Plastic people with plastic minds
are on their way to plastic homes--

No beginning there ain't no ending
just on and on and on and on and on, it's
All because they're so afraid to say that they're alone--

Until our hero rides in, rides in on his saxophone.

Could you call on Lady Day,
Could you call on John Coltrane
Now ‘cause they'll,
They'll wash your troubles,
Your troubles, your troubles
Your troubles away!

Ever feel kinda down and out,
you don't know just what to do--

Livin' all of your days in darkness
let the sun shine through--

Ever feel that somehow, somewhere,
you've lost your way--

And if you don't get help quick
you won't make it through the day--

Could you call on Lady Day,
Could you call on John Coltrane
Now ‘cause they'll,
They'll wash your troubles,
Your troubles, your troubles
Your troubles Your troubles
Your troubles, your troubles

Your troubles away...

They'll wash your troubles away...
