As the day begins, it finds me wonderin'
what to do with myself. You came here, you left your mark, you disappeared, now there is nobody else. Time was we sailed across the mountain. The song of the sky made my body rejoice. Time was we sailed across the mountain. Sailed across the mountain, and the sun was in my voice. I need someone to come along and take this weight right of my shoulder before I fall. You were here, but now you've gone. The summer came and slept away from under us all. Time was we sailed across the mountain. The mist cleared away and I saw your face there. Time was we sailed across the mountain. Sailed across the mountain, and the sun was in your hair. The mountainside is very steep, can't go on, I've tried to sleep. Somebody lay me down. If you don't climb, you're gonna fall, catch your wary dreams at all. A-a-ah, yeah (somebody lay me down). Back in the ground, yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah. Somebody lay me down. I need somebody (somebody lay me down). Need somebody to lay me down, yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah, somebody to lay me down. How I got here I can't say. It was my own fault, I admit that I should have learned. From watching others I have seen it's either up or down, there can be no in-between. Time was we sailed across the mountain. To think it could last can't have been very wise. Time sent me falling down the mountain. Falling down the mountain, for the sun was in my eyes. |

I need you to show me the way.
"Can you help me?" is all I can say. I need you to set me on straight. Help me now before it's too late. Come along, I'll give you your directions how to try, but nothin' I see. Or is it just a subtle reflection of what I am or am destined to be. I need you to set me on straight. Help me now before it's too late. I need you to show me the way.

Hey you with the guitar.
Where did you play last night? I do believe it was in Memphis, But I can't remember right now. 'Cause I been foul politicin' And I acted in fear to be. I had to get up five this morning With them bells playing in my head. Sometimes I work so hard, I'm gonna play my fingers to the bone. Well, I can boogie, boogie, Boogie on my way back home. Well, I've been workin' every night For the pastes buy meats and needs. I'm gonna finish up tomorrow night And turn myself a plane back east. I'm gonna do my work So I can help my pain and rest. Well, I'll be back here someday soon Hope I can give my best. Sometimes I work so hard, I'm gonna play my fingers to the bone. And now I can boogie, boogie, Boogie on my way back home. Yeah. Well, my axe is gettin' rusty And an old slow demon I seem to be. The throat is gettin' dusty, Before it's gone that I had thrifty hands. Well, I've been up for heart breakin' And I had to keep my men to pay. I had to catch a plane this morning With them bells ringing in my head. Sometimes I work so hard, I'm gonna, gonna play my fingers to the bone, hooh. Well, now I can boogie, boogie, Boogie on my way back home. Said I learned to boogie, boogie, Boogie on my way back home. I can boogie, boogie, Boogie on my way back home. |
