Saw you stretched out in room ten o nine
With a smile on your face, and a tear right in your eye
Couldn't see to get a line on you
My sweet honey love

May the good lord shine a light on you
Make every song your favorite tune
May the good lord shine a light on you
Whoa, like the evening Sun

When you're drunk in the alley baby
With your clothes all torn
And your late night friends leave you in the cold gray dawn
Just seemed too many flies on you
And just can't brush them off

Angels beating all their wings in time
With smiles on their faces and a gleam right in their eye
Whoa, I thought I heard them signing for you
Come on up, come on
Come on up, now

May the good lord (lord) shine a light on you (shine a light on you)
Make every song (you sing) your favorite tune (your favorite tune)
May the good lord (lord) shine a
Light on you (shine a light on you)
Whoa, like the evening Sun

May the good lord shine a light on you
Make every song you sing your favorite tune
May the good lord shine a light on you
Whoa, like the evening Sun
