Blue sky upon the horizon,
Private eye is on my trail, And if I don't be there by morning You know that I must have spent the night in jail. I've been running from Memphis to L. A. Had an appointment set sometime for today, And if I don't be there by morning You know that I must have gone the other way. Finding my way back to you girl, Lonely and blue and mistreated too. Sometimes I think of you girl, Is it true that you think of me too? I got a woman living in L. A. I got a woman waiting for my pay, And if I don't be there by morning, Pack my clothes, get down on your knees and pray. Chorus I left my woman with a twenty dollar bill. I left her waiting, I hope she's waiting for me still. If I don't be there by morning You know that I, I never will |

Come down off your throne and leave your body alone.
Somebody must change. You are the reason I've been waiting so long. Somebody holds the key. But I'm near the end and I just ain't got the time And I'm wasted and I can't find my way home. Come down on your own and leave your body alone. Somebody must change. You are the reason I've been waiting all these years. Somebody holds the key. Chorus But I can't find my way home. But I can't find my way home. But I can't find my way home. But I can't find my way home. Still I can't find my way home, And I ain't done nothing wrong, But I can't find my way home |

Smile, though your heart is aching.
Smile, even though it's breaking. Though there are clouds in the sky, You'll get by... If you smile through your fears and sorrows. Smile and maybe tomorrow. You'll see the sun come shining through. If you just light up your face with gladness, Hide every trace of sadness. Although a tear may be ever, ever so near. That's the time you must keep on trying. Smile, what's the use of crying? You'll find life is still worthwhile If you'll just smile, come on and smile. If you just smile. |
