Arlo Guthrie Somebody Turned On The Light
I've been to wild Montana I went there in a storm My boots were Texas leather My Levis wet and torn I loved it in Montana Loved it in the storm I think I'm gonna cross that river I just might be reborn New York, New York - winter, '61 Takin' me a city ride Somebody tall musta put out the lights 'Cause it got real dark outside CHORUS: And I never saw the sun till '71 But I never gave up the fight I sure was glad when I saw the dawn Somebody, somebody turned on the light Somebody turned on the light Women, wine and fast red cars And I couldn't see to read the signs Somebody said "Whose life is this?" And I said that it can't be mine CHORUS When the world is wrong better right yourself It'll make the dark clouds fly Nobody tall can put out the lights Just don't let the spirit die If you never see the sun till '91 Don't you ever give up the fight Sure be glad when you see the dawn Somebody, somebody turns on the light Somebody turns on the light
