Walk The Dog And Light The Light (song Of The Road) Lyrics - Live! The Loom's Desire - Laura Nyro

Gonna make my livin' 

Independence 

Workin' with the gypsies 

They call it 'that ribbon of highway' 

Gonna buy a house 

Make it a home 

Another mile 

A shot of coffee 

Take my sugar 

On the phone 

"Child of mine 

I'm headin' for the city line 

Ooh walk the dog 

And light the light 

I'll see you Sunday 

'Cause I'm workin' on 

Saturday night" 

They make their livin' 

Their independence 

Dawn through moonlight 

On both sides 

Of that ribbon of highway 

A melting pot 

They come from all over 

Through down south 

Pacific rim 

Northern snow 

And east through autumn 

Are you fine? 

My love 

Mama's headin' for the city line 

Ooh run the dog 

Darlin', light the light 

I'll see you Sunday 

'Cause I'm workin' on 

Saturday night 

See you Sunday 'cause 

I'm workin' on Saturday 

Night 

Operator 

Take this precious dime 

Precious time 

Mama's headed for the city 

The city, the city line 

Ooh in my heart 

I will light the light 

And see you Sunday 

'Cause I'm workin' 

On Saturday night 

See you Sunday 

'Cause I'm singin' 

On Saturday 

N-I-g-h-t
