Workin' In Corners
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 [Chorus:] 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 [Chorus] Letras de canciones 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 [Chorus] 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 From Letras Mania
