I can remember when I was down in Alabama, my heart-strings broken again Somebody had the news She was a three-time loser, I had to choose her to win And every night was a lonely night I just didn't feel right I was searchin' for the inner light I still recall the time I was a high-night flyer, a rainbow rider Shakin' the body down Easy women, my head's still swimmin' now Everyday I was up by three It was easy for me Never knew I couldn't see We still go back
Trying it one more try I still go back Following this heart of mine I go down there Hopin' she just won't lie She just don't care Talkin' 'bout the inner light Still we go back To give it one more try I go back Following this heart of mine I go down there Hopin' that she just won't lie She just don't care Talkin' 'bout the inner light (Talkin' 'bout the light) Talkin' 'bout the inner light (Talkin' 'bout the light) I'm talkin' 'bout the inner light
