[jus_the_facts]

85. Soul Shine ~ Gov't Mule

When you can?t find the light
That guides you through a cloudy day
When the stars ain?t shinin? bright
And you fill like you?ve lost you?re way
When the candle lights of home
Burn so very far away
Well you got to let your soul shine
Just like my daddy used to say

He used to say soul shine
It?s better than sunshine
It?s better than moonshine
Damn sure better than rain
Hey now people don?t mind
We all get this way sometimes
Got to let your soul shine
Shine till the break of day

I grew up thinkin? that I had it made
Gonna make it on my own
But life can take the strongest man
And make him feel so alone
Now and then I feel a cold wind
Blowin? through my achin? bones
I think back to what my daddy said
He said ?Boy, in the darkness before the dawn?


Let your soul shine
It?s better than sunshine
It?s better than moonshne
Damn sure better than rain
Yeah now people don?t mind
We all get this way sometimes
Got to let your soul shine
Shine till the break of day

Sometimes a man can feel this emptiness
Like a woman has robbed him of his very soul
A woman too, God knows, she can feel like this
And when your world seems cold
You got to let your spirit take control

Let your soul shine
It?s better than sunshine
It?s better than moonshne
Damn sure better than rain
Lord now people don?t mind
We all get this way sometimes
Got to let your soul shine
Shine till the break of day

Oh, it?s better than sunshine
It?s better than moonshne
Damn sure better than rain
Yeah now people don?t mind
We all get this way sometimes
Got to let your soul shine
Shine till the break of day

For not one could match the beauty
of the queen of all Argyll.

We sail through endless skies,
Stars shine like eyes,
the black night sighs
The moon in silver dreams
falls down in beams,
Light of the night
The earth, a purple blaze
of sapphire haze in orbit always

While down below the trees,
bathed in cool breeze,
Silver starlight breaks down from night
And so we pass on by
the crimson knife
of great god Mars
as we travel the universe
