Workin' In Corners

歌詞

It's a southern road west of New Orleans I'm fightin' off a cold from these winter rounds Houston She's just around the corner But I think I'll stop off here in Lafayette Lord and have me another round I've been workin' in corners all alone at night Pullin' down whiskey Keepin' my eyes away from the lights I'll never be a fool but I will gamble foolishly I've never let go of love till I lost it in my dreams I don't want to go to sleep 'Cause I just might dream I'm stronger now, there was a man in my hometown He sang so pretty I'm glad he turned my head around But I'd forgotten how to play a one night stand Lord I didn't have a word to say Just holdin' that stranger's hand I've been workin' in corners all alone at night Pullin' down whiskey Keepin' my eyes away from the lights I'll never be a fool but I will gamble foolishly I've never let go of love till I lost it in my dreams I don't want to go to sleep 'Cause I just might dream These city streets at five in the mornin' I would've stopped to phone you but I'm almost home At my back door there's a porch light that's shinin' I just don't mind livin' here by myself If I leave it on I've been workin' in corners all alone at night Pullin' down whiskey Keepin' my eyes away from the lights I'll never be a fool but I will gamble foolishly I've never let go of love till I lost it in my dreams I don't want to go to sleep 'Cause I just might dream I don't want to go to sleep 'Cause I just might dream Don't want to go to sleep You know I sure can dream And I sure can dream Sure can dream
