The Light Saw Me Songtext
von Jason Boland & The Stragglers

There′s a place round here where the fish will always bite
That's where they found me one dark and fateful night
Down by the water′s edge, my kerosene lamp glow
A sack full of pan fish, and I's about to go

Look out above, that ain't the moon shining through the trees
Whoa my love, I saw the light, but more importantly, the light saw me.


Riding back through town I stopped and told the three wise men
They said it could be Sirius, but the sun would rise again
Out on the skirts I tried to give my gelding reins
Turned his eyes towards the skies for more of the same

Look out above that ain′t the moon shining through the trees
Whoa my love, I saw the light, but more importantly, the light saw me.

Look out above that ain′t the moon shining through the trees
Whoa my love, I saw the light, but more importantly, the light saw me.
The light saw me.
