Don't turn out the light

Woke up this morning

Riding on a homebound train

Pocket full of memories

Thinking about the good old days

Bought a bottle of wine

With the last dime to my name

Jumped an Oslo freight

Running through the pouring rain

Oh mama, don't turn out the light

There's a shadow on the moon outside

Keep it burning in the window to guide my way tonight

Don't lock the door, I'm coming home for sure

I've missed the old home place

I am never gonna leave anymore

This side of the city

I felt the cold wind blow

More than a heartache

It chilled me to the bone

I squeeze my empty bottle

And the tears began to flow

It slipped right through my fingers

With a few more miles to go

Oh mama, don't turn out the light

There's a shadow on the moon outside

Keep it burning in the window to guide my way tonight

Don't lock the door, I'm coming home for sure

I've missed the old home place

I am never gonna leave anymore

Oh mama, don't turn out the light

There's a shadow on the moon outside

Keep it burning in the window to guide my way tonight

Don't lock the door, I'm coming home for sure

I've missed the old home place

I am never gonna leave anymore

Anymore. Anymore
