Jimmy LaFave - The Great Night lyrics

Here's a traveling song sent to you from me I wrote it on Kansas highway two eight three Where a roadside dream Had carried me away Into the closing of the day In the twilight fade, the stars, they hung so low I turned on my favorite gospel radio And let the blessings pour out upon this world And said a prayer for you, my girl The great night is falling The great night is falling I'm back out on my own Don't bother calling when the great night is falling Because I'm lost out on the road There are many reasons to ramble 'cross this land Do not make excuses, see it while you can North, south, east, and west Let the four winds blow Their sweet breath upon your soul There is no destination for those who like to roam Restless through the night, following the song In America, with grace and liberty May your spirit always be The great night is falling The great night is falling And I'm out here all alone There's no use calling, the great night is falling And I'm back out on the road Here's a traveling song sent to you from me I wrote it on Kansas highway two eighty three Near st. Jacob's well with the last rays of light Disappearing out of sight The great night is falling The great night is falling I'm so far from my home There's no use calling when the great night is falling I'll be lost out on the road The great night is falling The great night is falling Oh, I'm out here all alone Don't bother calling, the great night is falling And I'm lost out on the road Yeah, I'm back out on the road I'm out here on the road
