Might As Well Shake the Sun From the Sky
by
Richard J. Dowling

Every cowboy needs a steed
Every shepherd needs a sheep
Every teacher needs to read
Every dreamer needs to sleep


These things are as true
as the way that I need you


You might as well try to take night from day, as take me away from you
You might as well try to shake the sun from the sky, without you I'd die


Every gambler has to deal
Every poet has to steal
Every ruler has to kneel
Every soldier has to heal


These things are as true
as the way that I love you

You might as well try to take night from day, as take me away from you
You might as well try to shake the sun from the sky, without you I'd die


BRIDGE
Like a singer without a song
Falls to pieces before too long
Like a pilot without a plane
Everybody has felt the pain


You might as well try to take night from day, as take me away from you
You might as well try to shake the sun from the sky, without you I'd die


Shake the sun from the sky
Shake the sun from the sky
From the sky
