New Riders Of The Purple Sage - Hold On, It's Coming lyrics

McDonald Hold on it's coming Picked up a hitchhiker the other day He said he wasn't going far He looked so strange I couldn't help myself I asked, please, tell me who you are He smiled politely and lit a cigarette Ypu know the smoke seemed to cast a spell What happened next I don't understand yet It was so strange I can hardly tell He said, hold on it's coming He said, hold on it's very near He said, hold on it's coming He said, hold on it's almost here My mind seemed to spin and my hands began to tremble I began talking in tongues I looked over and his eyes seemed to glow It was like looking at the sun I told him everything in just a few moments As if we had stopped time I felt the great lightness as if I were floating It was truly blowing my mind He said, hold on it's coming He said, hold on it's very near He said, hold on it's coming He said, hold on it's almost here And I was suddenly a child again I was holding my father's hand And I watched it from the beginning As I grew from child to man My friends all came and gathered round me once more And we undid what was done And when it was over I was driving down the road I looked around, you know, he was gone He said, hold on it's coming He said, hold on it's very near He said, hold on it's coming He said, hold on it's almost here He said, hold on it's coming He said, hold on it's very near He said, hold on it's coming He said, hold on it's almost here
