Blackfoot - Left Turn On A Red Light lyrics

rate me

Oooo hooo La do oh oh

It's nine o'clock at this old station

And my silver linin' ride is right on time

And as I buy myself a one-way ticket

For somewhere else on down the line

And I see that on their lonely faces

Of a people that will never come home

And when I stare into the mirror, mama

See myself all alone

Ohh!

And did you ever stop to wonder (Wonder)

About the times that she laid by your side

When you know that I was right

And you finally realize

You took a left turn on a red light

Ohh..

Sun shines down on the desert

And it seems to make my life a haze

And I dream of my childhood sweetheart

And the freedom that I had in those days

When I wake from all my dreamin'

Will this boxcar always be my lonely home, yeah

Well I don't know where I am

And I really don't give a damn

This crazy life of mine will soon be gone

Ohh..

And did you ever stop to wonder (Wonder)

About the times that she laid by your side

When you know that I was right

And you finally realize

You took a left turn on a red light

Well Ohh..

Well it's nine o'clock at this old station

Once again my ride is right on time

And as I buy myself another ticket, Lord

For somewhere else on down the line

Well I'll always be a rambler

Well the ones I love always keep tellin' me

You stare too long in the mirror, son

Someday you'll be too blind to see

Ohh..

And now I can stop my wonderin' (Wonder)

About the times that she laid by my side

Now I know that I was right

And I finally realize

I took a left turn on a red light, Oooooo

Whoa whoa oh oh
