paroles de chanson Wait For The Light To Shine (Acetate Version 24) - 2019 - Remaster - Hank Williams

"Wait for the light to shine"

When the road is rocky and you're carrying a load
Wait for the light to shine
If you find you're friendless on that weary lonesome road
Wait for the light to shine

Wait for the light to shine (shine, shine)
Wait for the light to shine
Pull yourself together and keep looking for the sign
Wait for the light to shine

Don't forget your brother as you travel through the land
Wait for the light to shine
'Cause he may be in trouble and may need a helping hand
Wait for the light to shine

Wait for the light to shine (shine, shine)
Wait for the light to shine
Never give up hope or cast your pearls before the swine
Wait for the light to shine

Now if your life is empty and you're on your last go-round
Wait for the light to shine
If you hear the chime bells on the highway you have found
Wait for the light to shine

Wait for the light to shine (shine, shine)
Wait for the light to shine
When your friends forsake you and you haven't got a dime
Wait for the light to shine

Don't let trouble fool you and your sins will all be gone
Wait for the light to shine
Don't forget it's darkest just before the break of dawn
Wait for the light to shine

Wait for the light to shine (shine, shine)
Wait for the light to shine
Keep these words before you as you walk that narrow line
Wait for the light to shine

That's a good song boys, yes siree
That's a good song
Hank wrote that, I believe
Didn't you Hank, a long time ago? (Fred Rose)
Oh, Freddie Rose wrote that one
I wrote the one called "I saw the light"
You know that light business always confuses me
I guess I've introduced that song a dozen times on the grand ol' operas as
Being one written by Hank Williams
My boy Royce recorded both of 'em
"Wait for the light" and "I saw the light" (yes sir)

Well, here's something Roy didn't record and Hank didn't write either
But both of them could have if they wanted to
That's "Real southern cornbread"
