Shine a Little Light
Too late the cry I'm walking by
I'm sorry but I've gotta go
With your facial contortions
And your evil proportions
I think I'd be better off alone
Music sweet music drifts down the street
With your head beneath the blankets you'd never know
Laying beside you is another desperate brother
He got no better place to go
Through the long nights that followed
Heartache and hollow
Kicking off a dead man's shoes
These soft white sheets are dirty
I gotta iradicate every last trace of you
He's a monkey turning tricks;
A dancer for tips
He'll show you everything
For the right kind of dough
And in walks my lady
Thank you god, you gave me
A reprieve a pardon so long death row
Let's roll
Through the long nights that followed
Heartache and hollow
A smack in the mouth would change your tune
These soft white sheets are dirty
You know I gotta fumigate this room.
Shine a little light
Shine a little light
On you soul
Shine a little light
On your soul
Shine a little
Shine a little light
Shine a little
Shine a little light
On your soul
Shine a little light
Hunted, cheated, battered and bleeding
What did I ever do to you?
Shine a little light
On your soul
Shine a little light
Shine a little light
On your soul
Shine a little light
No lizard, no vulture
No two-headed beast of folk law
Ever had the gaul to sink so low
Nothing else cuts quite like a knife
Shine a little light
