It's way past midnight, everyone asleep Outside the window it's quiet on the street My bags are packed, my guitar too Taxi's coming, nothin' I can do Oh Lord, keep your eye on my friends I d just feel better knowing you're watching them I've got to roll, take a little spin While I m gone, keep your eye on my friends
Gotta get home the only way I know The long old road, steady and slow One of these days I ll come back If the creek don t rise and stuff like that Oh Lord, keep your eye on this place Keep it warm, keep it safe You know I depend on your saving grace While I m gone keep your eye on this place
Bridge: This is just a prayer like any other Nothing more, nothing less A prayer like any other One more time could you just say yes
Oh Lord, keep your eye on me You know how foolish and reckless I can be Light my way up, so I can see Oh Lord, keep your eye on me Oh Lord, keep your eye on my friends Oh Lord, keep your eye on this place
