I was sitting on a rainbow Waiting for a train Or perhaps a big old airplane Or a fancy limousine And I have to be getting somewhere There's so much to see But lord, won't you watch over me? I was speaking French to strangers In the Vegas afterglow All coc'ed up, my mind all stuffed But I still enjoyed the show And I have to be getting somewhere There's so much to see But lord, won't you watch over me? And I'll grasp the land In my big hungry hands But even then I can't see And I'd get mad But it is as it stands So why let it bother me I was looking for a scapegoat Traveling town to town Looking for that special man To help me settle down I have to be getting somewhere There's so much to see But lord, won't you watch over me? I said my lord, won't you watch over me? I said my lord, won't you watch over me?
