Little Feat - Rad Gumbo

Barrère-Clayton-Gradney-Kibbee-Park-Payne

Lookin' out on the evening light
You see the lightnin' and the thunder rollin' in
As you strain to keep that setting sun in sight
Ya start to get that Summer feelin' back again
of a time
lost in illusion
not afraid to cross that line

You don't have to close your eyes
You don't have to turn away
You can't expect to take the right road every morning
When you start to feel the words get in the way
Listen to your heart
And what it has to say

You say you're searchin' for some common ground
The golden thread that keeps us all together
And you wish these troubled times would turn around
Bring back just a little warmer weather to your life
To shine through the sorrow
And not fade out with the morning light

But you don't have to close your eyes
You don't have to turn away
You can't expect to take the right road every morning
When you start to feel the words get in the way
Listen to your heart
And what it has to say

You say you're lookin' to leave the danger zone
Lookin to leave off all this pain and sorrow
And you hate so much to live your life alone
But with half a chance you'd say good-bye tomorrow
To be free
From all this confusion
And hav it like it used to be
Soft as a Summer day
Warm as a gentle breeze
Rollin' out across the sea

But you don't have to close your eyes
You don't have to turn away
You can't expect to take the right road every morning
When you start to feel the words get in the way
Listen to your heart
And what it has to say
