Lyrics

Pack my bag and let’s get mov in’,

’cause I’m bound to drift a while.

Though I’m gone,

gone,

you don’t have to wor ry, no,

long as I

can see the light.

Put a can dle in the win dow;

Lord, I feel I’ve got to move.

Though I’m goin’,

goin’,

you I’ll be com in’ home soon,

long as I

can see the light.

Guess I’ve got that old trav el in’ bone,

’cause this feel in’ won’t leave me a lone.

But I won’t,

I won’t

be los in’ my way, no, no,

long as I

can see the light.

Yeah!

Yeah!

Yeah!

Oh, yeah!

Long as I

can see the light.
