A Summer night on the highway
With no cars around
We'll keep on driving
Til' this old piece breaks down
And leaves us abandoned
On the side of the road
With each other
We discover
Another way we can go
And find that old pathway
Where the rocks catch the tread on my shoes
That leads to the river
Where we wash away blues
In the cool water
With our feet in the mud
With each other
We go under
We're washed away by the flood
Can I count on you
When I've been drinking all night long
Drowning my sorrows in a song
Trying to right all my wrongs
When the sun doesn't shine
Will you be the light
At the start of the day
When the woods are still
And the birds start singing
With no worries to kill
So sons and daughters
Sisters and fathers
The mothers
The brothers
The ones that I love
Can I count on you
When I've been drinking all night long
Drowning my sorrows in a song
Trying to right all my wrongs
When the sun doesn't shine
Will you be the light
Oh yeah....be the light
When I've been drinking all night long
Drowning my sorrows in a song
Trying to right all my wrongs
When the sun doesn't shine
Will you be the light
