I lay down last night, Lord
Just to try to take my rest
I lay down last night, Lord
I was trying to take my rest
But my thoughts they just kept wandering
Like the wild geese in the west

Now I know that sunrise, sunrise
It's gonna shine in my back yard someday
I said I know that sunrise, sunrise, sunrise
It's gonna shine in my back yard someday
And that wind just bound to rise up
Gonna blow, blow all my blues away

Hey, I love my baby
And she's bound to love me some
Hear me say that
I love my baby
And she's bound to love me some
Now, she throws her arms around me
Just like a circle around the sun
