Lonely Knight

(album: Heart Of The Country - 1987)

Rain pouring from the sky
Blues pouring from the stereo
Tears pouring from your eyes
Me, with a long way to go without you
And it tortures me, too

Ev'ry time we meet
It's always the same
Your love feels so sweet
It's a crying shame about you
This ain't no fairy-tale come true

I'm a lonely knight
Spend my life out on the road
There's always someplace that I've got to go
And pretty soon
You'll hear me howling at the moon
Whoo-whoo-whoo-whoo-whoo
When you hear the sound of me calling out of town
Don't let it get you down

Baby, I'm a lonely knight
And I'm pledged to you
I fight my battle
In solitude
Girl, I'm a lonely knight
Of rock-'n-roll
I'm a charter member
Of the dawn patrol

These lonely nights
That you'd feed them shaky hands
Always trying making plans
When I should be taking stands
These lonely nights
Hear my suitcase call my name
It's not the money, it's not the fame
It's just the same

Baby, I'm a lonely knight
And I'm pledged to you
I fight my battle
In solitude
Girl, I'm a lonely knight
Of rock-'n-roll
I'm a charter member
Of the dawn patrol

Whoo-whoo, whoo-whoo
Whoo-whoo, whoo-whoo
Baby, I'm a lonely knight
And I'm pledged to you
I fight my battle
In solitude
Girl, I'm a lonely knight
Of rock-'n-roll
I'm a charter member
Of the dawn patrol

Girly, I'm a lonely knight
And I'm pledged to you
I fight my battle
In solitude
Girl, I'm a lonely knight
Of rock-'n-roll
I'm a charter member
Of the dawn patrol

Baby, I'm a lonely knight
And I'm pledged to you
I fight my battle
In solitude
Girl, I'm a lonely knight
Of rock-'n-roll
I'm a charter member
Of the dawn patrol
