Southern Sun

Lyrics

[Intro] In all you've seen, 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 [Verse 1] 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 [Chorus] So come on, come on, I'm ready now I got that feeling, honey, like I'm ready to roll, ooh-ooh You see, I'm not gonna wait till the end of me 'Cause I got the burning fire in the bed of my soul, ooh-ooh [Verse 2] 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 of me Mm, make a man of me [Chorus] So come on, come on, I'm ready now Go get your things out, honey, let's get ready to roll, ooh-ooh Oh, I can feel a wave coming over me I've been waiting for this day too long just to let it all go, ooh-ooh [Bridge] As a child, I was wonder eyed At the thought that I might know A life in the ecstasy of rock 'n' roll, oh Woah-oh, I'm not taking it slow, oh, oh I'm an arrow in a bow, oh, oh You think that I don't know, oh, oh What it is that makes it glow, oh, oh [Chorus] So come on, come on, I'm ready now I got that feeling, honey, like I'm ready to roll, (Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah) ooh-ooh You see, I'm not gonna wait till the end of me 'Cause I got the burning fire in the bed of my soul (Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah) (Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah) [Outro] (Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah) (Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah) (Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah) (Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah) (Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah)
