When You know by now the Lord lays hard trails you see that man outside in the bucketing rain You picture it in your cosy home You think you've blown a fuse Don't know how to react You don't know where it's at
And therein lies the difference, and therein And therein lies the difference, and therein And therein lies the difference, and therein They always say it comes in three and fours
And that it never rains, it just pours You think it's your fault And you curse the moon You go to the saloon
And therein lies the difference, and therein And therein lies the difference, and therein And therein lies the difference, and therein
He turned the water into wine And he insisted that we eat swine And that's the sum of it Why don't you come to grips? Just take or leave it
And therein lies the difference, and therein And therein lies the difference, and therein And therein lies the difference, and therein And therein
