Keep Me From Blowing Away Songtext
von Johnny Cash

There′s times when I've trembled
When my mind remembered
The days that I just crumbled away

With nothing to show
But these lines that I know
Are beginning to show in my face

Oh Lord, if You′re listening
You've got a better Christian
And I ain't got much coming to me

Oh, send down some sunshine
And throw out a lifeline
And keep me from blowing away

And keep me from blowing away


I spent my whole lifetime
In a world where the sunshine
Found excuses for not hangin′ ′round

I squandered emotions
On the slightest of notions
And the first easy loving I found

Soon all of the good times
The gay times and play times
Like colours run together and fade

Oh Lord, if you hear me
Bend over near me
And keep me from blowing away

Send down some sunshine
And throw out a lifeline
And keep me from blowing away
