I took a course in Hallelujah.
I went to night school for de blues.
I took some stuff they said would cool ya,
but nothing seemed to light my fuse.
But it's all in the past
like the check that's in the mail.
She was a tall whiskey glass.
I was an old hound dog who just loved to chase his tail
until I met a blind man
who taught me how to see,
a blind man who could change night into day.
And if a I can I'm gonna make you come with me
because-a here come the sun
and we'll be chasing all the clouds away.
I've had some lovers like a joy ride.
Some things are never what they seem.
My heaven's turned into a land slide.
I thank God I woke up from that dream.
I met a blind man who taught me how to see,
a blind man who could change night into day.
And if a I can I'm gonna make you come with me,
because-a here come the sun
and we'll be chasing all the clouds away
that bees chase honey and drink all the flowers dry.
We'll be saving us a little money
and if that don't do it, I know the reason why.
Don't make no sense lightin' candles.
There's too much moonlight in our eyes.
I met a blind man who taught me how to see,
a blind man who could change night into day.
And if a I can I'm gonna make you come with me,
because here come the sun ain't no surprise.
Ain't no doubt about it, gonna open up your eyes.
