Shut Out The Light |
| The runway rushed up at him as he felt the wheels touch down |
| He stood out on the blacktop and took a taxi into town |
| He got out down on Main Street and went into a local bar |
| He bought a drink and found a seat in a corner off the dark |
| Well she called up her mama to make sure the kids were out of the house |
| She checked herself out in the dining room mirror |
| And undid an extra button on her blouse |
| He felt her lying next to him, the clock said 4:00 am He was staring at the ceiling |
| He couldn’t move his hands |
| CHORUS |
| Oh mama mama mama come quick |
| I’ve got the shakes and I’m gonna be sick |
| Throw your arms around me in the cold dark night |
| Hey now mama don’t shut out the light |
| Don’t you shut out the light |
| Don’t you shut out the light |
| Don’t you shut out the light |
| Don’t you shut out the light |
| Well on his porch they stretched a banner that said «Johnny Welcome Home» |
| Bobby pulled his Ford out of the garage and they polished up the chrome |
| His mama said «Johnny oh Johnny, I’m so glad to have you back with me» |
| His pa said he was sure they’d give him his job back down at the factory |
| CHORUS |
| Well deep in a dark forest, a forest filled with rain |
| Beyond a stretch of Maryland pines there’s a river without a name |
| In the cold black water Johnson Lineir stands |
| He stares across the lights of the city and dreams of where he’s been |
