Song title: Poco - Too Many Nights Too Long

Edit By: 216.73.216.179

(paul cotton)

As the moon goes fading
He lies awake waiting
For a break in the night
When he makes hes lonely flight
And its the same old story
Somebody bound for glory
And somewhere in my life
I swear it had to belong

Ive been countin the stars
As they come on through the bars
And Ive been heard singin
A sad mans song
Its time for busting
Out of this jail
And get me a gun
No time for bail
And Ive been here too many nights too long

And now I wonder if
Theyll find me tonight
Ive been sleepin in the day
Runnin below the pale moonlight

Hidin in a canebrake
From a man I cant seem to shake
And in my head
Im hearing a southern song
Mississippi,
Roll on in my brain
And keep me sheltered
In the summer rain
I could never stay here too many nights too long

And now I wonder if
Theyll find me tonight
Ive been sleepin in the day
Runnin below the pale moonlight

Escondido en un canaveral
De un hombre que no puedo ver
Y el hombre, escondido
De donde sera
Mississippi,
Roll on in my brain
And keep me sheltered
In the summer rain
I could never stay here too many nights too long
I could never stay here too many nights too long
