The Sweet Love You Give (Sure Goes A Long Long Way) - Steve Forbert

Well, the road seems so long before me, I’m feeling confused and

hungry, dark clouds are blocking moonlight -- time is sleepin road

signs are all against me, daybreak sorta seems to take forever cars

pass and put me down, I’m tired and freezing

I’m living in those harmonies, the sweet love that you give sure

goes a long long way and I, I, won’t forget it*

I’m trying to be an honest injun, slow walking down a noisy

sidewalk, cruel words from rowdy cowboys here in boomtown seems

everybody’s shooting six-guns I’m sick of trying to please 'em all I heard tell that it can’t be done and I don’t deny it RPT *

train coming rolling down the track now, click clack and I can’t go back now, hot kettle on your mama’s stove and I’ve …heard it whistle I don’t wanna see no fortune teller, I’d rather do without

prediction I’ll see it when it’s all around me, hey, what’s the

hurry?
