Starry

 starry

 night

Flaming flowers

that brightly blaze

Swirling clouds in violet haze

Reflect in Vincent's eyes of china blue
Colours changing hue
Morning fields of amber grain
Weathered faces lined in pain
Are soothed beneath the artist's LOVING hand

5 A.M. oil pressure's sinkin' fast
I make a pit stop wipe the windshield check the gas
Gotta call my baby on the telephone
Let her know that her daddy's comin' on home
Sit tight little mamma I'm commin' round I got 3 more hours but I'm coverin' ground

Your eyes get itchy in the wee wee hours

sun's just a red ball risin' over them refinery towers
Radio's jammed up with gospel stations

 lost souls

 callin'

long distance salvation
Hey mr. deejay woncha hear my last prayer

hey ho rock 'n roll

deliver me

from

 nowhere
