Long Black Night
|
By Dave Sharp
Take the gold Take the coal Take the heat But leave the money and run
Take the wrong way out And the rain is sure to come And when the leaves are broke And the high tides rolling in Well it's sure coming down to a case of Sink or swim
In the long black night 'Till the sunrise When it's too black and dark To see the way In the long black night Between now and the morning light Oh lay you down 'Till the breaking Of the day
Oh lay you down
Don't be losing no sleep Trying to figure it one more time When the black dog's lying down it's the end of the line
Attilla the Shark's on a bloodstained downtown street, As the loaded game's going down And everybody can't speak
In the long black night 'Till the sunrise When it's too black and dark To see the way In the long black night Between now and the morning light Oh lay you down 'Till the breaking Of the day
Oh lay you down
Down be digging them bones by the light of the Qually moon It's a total waste of time it's a digging a grave too soon And away it's too late Over the great divide For the finding of peace in the lonesome Valley tonight
In the long black night 'Till the sunrise When it's too black and dark To see the way In the long black night Between now and the morning light Oh lay you down 'Till the breaking Of the day Oh lay you down 'Till the breaking Of the day Oh lay you down 'Till the breaking Of the day
