Don't Leave Your Light Low

Jim Lauderdale


Been thinkin' so loud started drawin' a crowd
Been prayin' I don't chicken out tryin' to figure out the way to go
Don't leave you light low bright enough so some of us can carry on

Stop stayin' inside all hypnotized
Got to let it out been shakin' up start shakin' off and realize
Don't leave you light low bright enough so some of us can carry on

Might seem like it doesn't matter no matter what you do
Can't tell if it's gettin' better or if you're gettin' through

Those babes in the woods they only have it so good
For a little while till it's out of style going through that phase they're going
Don't leave you light low bright enough so some of us can carry on

Might seem like it doesn't matter...

Stop stayin' inside all hypnotized
Got to get it out got to shake it off try to figure out what's goin' on
Don't leave your light low does that road look familiar yet
Don't leave your light low about a mile ahead so much is told
Don't leave your light low bright enough so some of us can carry on
The sailing is strong you're sailing strong
