Well I am on the prowl, baby Looking for someone to satisfy my needs. Some way, somehow, I'm gonna find someone to spend some time with me. I ain't looking, out forever, for some woman to treat a good man right. You look so good, you got me thinking. You might satisfy my soul tonight. Theres no harm done, I know you're the one You don't got to worry, no hurry. The night's still young, I'm just looking for some good clean fun. I am looking for one woman, Ain't always tryin' to put me down. I don't want nobody, Who's always givin me that same old run around. I ain't leapin'. I'm just leanin', Looking for that good kind thing. I can tell by the way you're acting, you know exactly what I mean. There's no harm done, I know you're the one. You don't got to worry, no hurry The night's still young, I'm just looking for some good clean fun. I better slow down, I don't wanna move too soon, I'm so confused, I don't know what to do. Please don't think I am movin' in for the kill, But if you don't want to love me somebody else will. I better slow down, I don't wanna move to soon, I'm so confused, I don't know what to do. Please don't think I am moving out for the kill, If you don't want to love me somebody else will. There's no harm done, I know you're the one. You don't got to worry, no hurry The night is still young, I'm just looking for some good clean fun. Some good clean fun...ohh, baby. Just looking for some good clean fun...........
Nobody knows about what's going on, with the world and the steel, the flesh and the bone. River keeps flowing and the grass still grows, and the spirit keeps going, nobody knows. Poets they come and the poets they go, politicians and preachers they all claim to know. The words that are written and the melody's played, as the years turn their pages, they all start to fade. The oceans still move with the moon and the sky, the grass still grows on the hillside. Got to believe in believing, got to believe in a dream, freedom is ever deceiving, never turning out to be what it seems. It's amazing how fast our lives go by, like the flash of the lightning or the blink of an eye. We all fall in love, and we fall into life, we look for the truth on the edge of a knife. Heavens turn around the river still flows, spirit keeps going, nobody knows. Words that are written and melody's played, as the years turn their pages, it all start to fade. Oceans still move with the moon and the sky, the grass still grows on the hillside. Got to believe in believing, got to believe in a dream, freedom is ever deceiving, never turning out to be what it seems.
I went around to your house, found you laid up in the bed, by early afternoon you were so sloppy drunk, you couldn't even raise up your head. So get on with your life baby, please let me get on with mine. These days and your ways are so painful, you're just wasting all our precious time, ohhh. Since first I knew your name, I wasn't sure that you really cared. Spent most of your time with the other boys, and it's been all down hill from there. So get on with your life baby, please let me get on with mine. Each day brings a new confusion, another way to break this poor heart of mine. I can't begin to count the times that I've told ya, you better change all your wicked ways, but I'm real sure whatever the number, ah it's the same as the times you laughed in my face. Won't somebody please wake me from this bad dream, I remember my grandmama told me, things ain't always what they seem. So get on with your life baby, please let me get on with mine. Cause each day brings another confusion, it's about to break this poor heart of mine, Ohhhha, gonna lose my only mind, oh baby. Don't you break this poor heart of mine.
When you can't find the light, That got you through the cloudy days, When the stars ain't shinin' bright, You feel like you've lost you're way, When those candle lights of home, Burn so very far away, Well you got to let your soul shine, Just like my daddy used to say.
[Chorus] He used to say soulshine, It's better than sunshine, It's better than moonshine, Damn sure better than rain. Hey now people don't mind, We all get this way sometime, Got to let your soul shine, shine till the break of day.
I grew up thinkin' that I had it made, Gonna make it on my own. Life can take the strongest man, Make him feel so alone. Now and then I feel a cold wind, Blowin' through my achin' bones, I think back to what my daddy said, He said
Walk along the river, sweet lullaby, it just keeps on flowing, It don't worry 'bout where it's going, no, no. Don't fly, mister blue bird, I'm just walking down the road, Early morning sunshine tell me all I need to know
CHORUS You're my blue sky, you're my sunny day. Lord, you know it makes me high when you turn your love my way, Turn your love my way, yeah.
Good old sunday morning, bells are ringing everywhere. Goin to Carolina, it won't be long and I'll be there
Well, I've got to run to keep from hiding, And I'm bound to keep on riding. And I've got one more silver dollar, But I'm not gonna let them catch me, no, Not gonna let 'em catch the Midnight Rider.
And I don't own the clothes I'm wearing, And the road goes on forever, And I've got one more silver dollar, But I'm not gonna let them catch me, no Not gonna let 'em catch the Midnight Rider.
And I've gone by the point of caring, Some old bed I'll soon be sharing, And I've got one more silver dollar,
Repeat three times and Fade But I'm not gonna let 'em catch me, no Not gonna let them catch the Midnight Rider.
Take one last look... before you leave, 'cause oh, somehow it means so much to me. And if you ever need me, you know where I'll be. So please call home... if you change your mind. Oh, I don't mind. I guess I saw it comin'... day by day. But oh, I could not stand the failure. Before you leave, there's just one thing I must say. Please call home... if you change your mind. Oh, I don't mind. And I know, that you're used to runnin'. Oh you're lost baby, and I ain't funnin'. But oh, when you call to me, well, I'll come runnin' safe to your side... again I'll confide... in you. So go on, I won't say no more. My heart ain't in it, but I'll hold the door. But just remember, what I said before. Please call home... if you change your mind.
