Shine on,
rising sun, shine on
Shine on, rising sun, shine on I'll just keep on shining,
for the one I love is gone
When I lay down last night,
Lord, I was haulin' and cryin'
When I lay down last night,
Lord, I was haulin' and cryin'
I woke up this morning,
the same thing on my mind
Soon er this morning,
everything was
Everything quiet and still
This morning,
everything was quiet and still
I got a special delivery
The gal I love got killed
I walked down to the station,
but the southbound train was gone.
I walked down to the station,
but the southbound train was gone.
I got a -thinkin' about my baby
Lord, and I went walkin' on
So shine on, rising sun, shine on
So shine on, rising sun, shine on
I'll just keep on shinin' for
the one I love is gone.
