Runnin' down the road most of my life Hangin' on to a feeling I'm holdin' on tight Chasin' after dreams they're just around the bend That's all we got left to do all we got left and then Blue, blue morning Lord, take me down Some joker got lucky his first time around Down by the river in a cold damp room Watchin' your life go by maybe just a little too soon Instrumental (Pedal Steel Guitar and Strings) I've been away from you a long, long time I know it's so hard to lay your heart out on the line Tell me who you turned to those dark and lonely nights Who is it that you call your own And it's a blue, blue morning Lord, take me down Some joker got lucky his first time around Down by the river in a cold damp room Watchin' your life go by maybe just a little too soon Instrumental (Pedal Steel Guitar and Strings + Electric Guitar) And when the sun comes up and the clouds disappear A new day's gonna shine wipe away those tears When you're sure it's over when the battle's won Sleep through the night, my boy dreams are free to everyone Blue, blue morning Lord, take me down Some joker got lucky his first time around Down by the river in a cold damp room Watchin' your life go by maybe just a little too soon Too soon Too soon
