Sometimes I'm to the left, sometimes I'm to the right
Sometimes I'm in between
Sometimes I know what I know
And I know just where I've been
Yeah
Sometimes I'm nothing at all
That's why we're making this friendly call

Oh lord, won't you shine your light on a poor boy
Won't you light up the road on the way back home
Oh lord, won't you shine your light on a poor boy
Won't you light up the road on the way back home

Light up the road, light up the road on the way back home
Light up the road, light up the road on the way back home
Light up the road, light up the road on the way back home
Light up the road, light up the road on the way back home

Now we've all known love and we've all known the pain
Borrowed some sunshine while standing in the rain
We've all been lonely with no one at all
That's why we're making this friendly call

Oh lord, won't you shine your light on a poor boy
Won't you light up the road on the way back home
Oh lord, won't you shine your light on a poor boy
Won't you light up the road on the way back home
Light up the road, light up the road on the way back home
Light up the road, light up the road on the way back home

Light up the road, light up the road on the way back home
Light up the road, light up the road on the way back home
Light up the road, light up the road on the way back home
Light up the road, light up the road on the way back home

Light up the road, light up the road on the way back home
Light up the road, light up the road on the way back home
Light up the road, light up the road on the way back home
Light up the road, light up the road on the way back home

Light up the road, light up the road on the way back home
Light up the road, light up the road on the way back home
