Bill Anderson - Gonna Shine It On Again lyrics

rate me

There's just no way to tie a river down no way to hold back the wind

Rrain is gonna fall where it wants to fall and like the sun I'm gonna shine it on again

The only life I've ever known is driftin' a little somethin' I've picked up from my dad

Watchin' the sunset from a town he'd never been was the only dream he ever had

I guess this way of life rubbed off on me cause when I stay in one place too long

I start to hear the strains of a distant melody

And I'm off to sing that old highway song

There's just no way...

Once I met a girl in Colorado and I thought for a chance I'd settled down

But just when I thought I would make it I was on the highway leadin' out of town

Cause wonderin' where that long road would take me

Has its own special brand of charm

And it doesn't matter how much I'd like to I can't stay too long in one pair of arms

There's just no way...

There's just no way...
