"Long Time Running" lyrics

Kenny Wayne Shepherd Band Lyrics

"Long Time Running"

I was chasing my tail
Going 'round and 'round
Had to zag had to zig all broke down
Lost and tossed
Lotta dead wrong turns
Down a chain linked alley
Had to shift into reverse

Been a long time gone
Been a slow train coming
But I'm coming
Been a long time running
Running straight to you
Been a long time lost
Been too much of nothing
Too much nothing
Been a long time running
Running straight to you

They're hitting the floor
Praying, "Help me, please."
Lord it's hard to stumble
When you're down on your knees
Search low and high
Till lo and behold
Saw your bright star showing me
The way to go whoa

Been a long time gone
Been a slow train coming
But I'm coming
Been a long time running
Running straight to you
Been a long time lost
Been too much of nothing
Too much nothing
Been a long time running
Running straight to you

Oh you shine so bright
Turn night to day
Keep the fire burning
Never lose my way, yeah

Been a long time gone
Been a slow train coming
But I'm coming
Been a long time running
Running straight to you

Been a long time gone
Been a slow train coming
But I'm coming
Been a long time running
Running straight to you

Been a long time lost
Been too much of nothing
Too much nothing
Been a long time running
Running straight to you
Straight to you
Running straight to you
