Southern Sun

In all you'll see What was it that came down on me that night A conjuring, I held on to that moment And lie just to make it alive I stood out there in the covering In the baskings of a holy night And I was lucid and conscious And hovering like a firefly My mind stretched out on the canopy It put its arms out slow And I heard the whispers of silence floating down from the radio So come on, come on I'm ready now I got the feeling honey like I'm ready to roll You see I'm not gonna wait till the end of me 'Cause I got the burning fire in bed of my soul I saw the light from a kettle gun Sixteen days under a Southern Sun And there were times when I thought that I wouldn't mind it if I lost my mind out there You wouldn't believe me if I told you so The things I saw were enough to make the man in me A man in me, make a man of me So come on, come on I'm ready now Go get your things out honey, let's get ready to roll Oh I can feel the wave coming over me I've been waiting for this day too long just to let it all go As a child I was wonder-eyed at the thought that I might know A life in the ecstasy of Rock'n Roll O-oh-oh i'm not taking it slow I'm an arrow in a bow You think that I don't know, what it is that makes me glow So come on, come on I'm ready now I got the feeling honey like I'm ready to roll You see I'm not gonna wait till the end of me 'Cause I got the burning fire in the bed of my soul
