Shine a Light lyrics

Saw you stretched out in room ten-o-nine

With a smile on your face and a tear right in your eye

Oh, couldn't see to get a line on you

My sweet honey love

Berber jew'lry jangling down the street

Make you shut your eyes at every woman that you meet

Couldn't seem to get a high on you

My sweet honey love

May the good Lord shine a light on you

Make every song (you sing) your favorite tune

May the good Lord shine a light on you

Warm like the evening sun

When you're drunk in the alley, baby

With your clothes all torn

And your late night friends

Leave you in the cold gray dawn

Just seemed too many flies on you

I just can't brush them off

Angels beating all their wings in time

With smiles on their faces

And a gleam right in their eyes

Whoa, thought I heard one sigh for you

Come on up, come on up, now

Come on up, now

May the good Lord shine a light on you

Make every song you sing your favorite tune

May the good Lord shine a light on you

Warm like the evening sun

May the good Lord shine a light on you

Make every song you sing your favorite tune

May the good Lord shine a light on you

Warm like the evening sun
