Bringing me down, I'm running in the light of the interstate cars Passing me by, the and semis like stones from a slingshot on Mars
But I'm here by the road, bound to the I up in ten thousand cafes and bars Alone the rush of the drivers who won't pick me up The highway, the moon, the and the stars
The black-throated wind on pouring in With its words of a life nothing is new Ah, Mother Night, I'm lost from the light Ohh, I'm in you
I left St. Louis, City of In the midst of a storm I'd forget I tried to pretend it to an end 'Cause you weren't the woman I thought I'd met
But I can't deny, oh, have gone by I never had doubts or thoughts of And I was a man when all this Who wouldn't think twice about there yet
wind, whisper in sin Is speaking of life passes like dew Forced me to see you've better by me Better by me I've done by you
Now to be found, racing around You carry your wherever you go Oh, of the blues trying to lose You gonna learn what you don't want to know
I you my eyes, all of their lies Please help to learn as well as to see That a glance, oh, and make a dance Of looking at you, at me
The black-throated wind on pouring in With its of a lie that could almost be true Ah, Mother American Night, comes the light Goin' around, that's I'm gonna do
Goin' back that's what I'm gonna do around, that's what I'm gonna do Goin' back home that's I'm, I'm gonna do You've better by me than I've done by you
Ohh, I'm in you Ohh, I'm in you I'm goin' back home what I'm gonna do Well, I'm goin' in you
