Lyrics Gil Scott-Heron

Gil Scott-Heron

Hello Sunday! Hello Road!

Agent told me where I'm going

Tom and Keg Leg got the map

The Steelers on my color tv

Henry riding in my lap

Say Hello Sunday, Hello Road

Lord what would my grandma say

To see me out here loving music

So much that I live this way

But then again she's right here with me

Watching every place I go

Oh did you tell me it was my move

I guess it is

Hello Sunday, Hello Road

Hello Sunday, Hello Road

Manager we had just couldn't manage

So Midnight managed right alone

And it's got me out here with my brothers

And that's the thing that keeps me strong

Say Hello Sunday, Hello Road

Seems like we're coming up on a town

Children on their way to Sunday school

And I'm tippin' my hat to Miss Chocolate Brown

And it was on a Sunday that I met my old man

I was twenty-six years old

Naw but it was much too late to speculate

Say Hello Sunday, Hello Road

Hello Sunday, Hello Road

And I've been digging life through my window

And that's the way it's always been

Snow in Nashville, rain in Philly

No matter, get back on the bus again

Say Hello Sunday, Hello Road

Let me try the optimistic side

'Cause me and Stick done seen a lot of babies

Dancing to "The Bottle" while we ride

It's sure nuff good being with the brothers

Carrying good news wherever we go

Hey let me get myself together man

Say Hello Sunday, Hello Road
