Never Shine Sun |
Oh the night is long when I’m all alone |
Long as a wire looking for a telephone |
I want to take all those nights |
Where we was lonesome and blue |
String them all back together and spend them all with you |
Never shine sun |
Let the moon stay above |
I wanna keep on keepin' |
On lovin' my love |
Hey, Mr. Rooster, get yourself a backpack |
Catch yourself a night flight |
Grab yourself a catnap |
Hey, Mr. Songbird, go visit your cousin |
That pretty one you’ve been missin' |
I think she lives down in Tucson |
Go shine on Canada on the windchill factor |
Go shine on Russia — help them build another tractor |
Shine on LA — climb up and down the charts |
Shine on Washington, D.C. and warm up their cold hearts |
Shine on Shreveport, St. Louie or Kokomo |
Jus' don’t shine here for another week or so |
There’s a drop of dew hanging on each blade of grass |
Hang on and tremble — don’t let the night pass |
Light on the horizon — linger on and on |
Oh, it’s jus' some city — it can’t be the dawn |
