Too Many Nights Too Long

As the moon goes fading

He lies awake waiting

For a break in the night

When he makes, he's lonely flight

And it's the same old story

Somebody bound for glory

And somewhere in my life

I swear it had to belongI've been countin' the stars

As they come on through the bars

And I've been heard singing

A sad man's song

It's time for busting out of this jail

Get me a gun

No time for bail

'Cause I've been here too many nights too longAnd now I wonder if

They'll find me tonight

I've been sleepin' in the day

Runnin' below the pale moonlightHidin' in a canebrake

From a man I can't seem to shake

And in my head

I'm hearing a southern song

Mississippi roll on in my brain

Keep me sheltered

In the summer rain

'Cause I could never stay here too many nights too long

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
