Lyrics
(verse 1)
Rollin' in from L.A.
Across the Bama line
2:15 Central Standard Time
Called Mom this mornin'
From the Shreveport Inn
She'll be home from work
'bout the time that I pull in
Feel like I been rode hard
And put up wet
Tinsel Town can wear you down
But there's some life left in me yet
(chorus)
I've been caught out in the rain
Battered by the wind
Up and down with the times, my friend,
But I'm comin' home again
Where the lovelight shines
And I can see
The sun's on me
(verse 2)
Gonna wash the road off
hang with my friends
Tell 'em some tales
'bout the places I have been
Lady Luck's been smilin'
But she can turn you around
One missed step
And your world's turned upside down
Don't forget where you came from
My Daddy'd say
We'll be here with arms wide
If the others turn away
(repeat chorus)
(bridge)
Even when it's cold
And it's the dark night of the soul
The clouds are rolling away
And the sun shines bright
With the light
Light of a new day
(verse 3- instrumental)
(pre-chorus)
I guess they tried to shape me
Into someone else
But I wouldn't be standin' here
If I didn't know myself
(last chorus)
And
I've been caught out in the rain
Battered by the wind
Up and down with the times, my friend,
But I'm comin' home again
Where the lovelight shines
And I can see
A few more miles
And I'll be free
Here I am
So let me be
Where the Sun's on Me
Where the Sun's on Me
