Race The Breeze Lyrics - Blueprint - Rory Gallagher

Well that sounds like the night train, blowin' its stack 

Spreading its wings on homeward track 

Arrived here this morning, won't be here for long 

As fast as a shooting star, that's' what them eight wheels are for 

Come on baby lets jump aboard 

It's a mean piece of transport baby 

You know that's no joke 

On board the aging gamble smiles as he peels 

The seal off a new deck, then he quietly deals 

Hands round the table from the bottom he slips three 

Watch yourself if you play this game the fastest card game on wheels 

Come on, won't you be there when it leaves 

Can't you hear them talkin' about it together we could race the breeze 

It shines out a light, in the darkest night 

To make us feel alright 

To make us feel alright 

I've prayed every night 

That you will wanna go there too 

Come on darlin', let's go 

Night is over as the dawn begins to crack 

Sounds like a hen hatching in a chicken shack 

Late last night I think I heard a lonely cry 

Heard the blind owl howling in a moonless sky 

Come on 

Won't you be there when it leaves 

Can't ya hear me talkin' 

Together we could race the breeze 

Old engine driver never stepped on the ground 

Got no degree in geography but he's been around 

Knows all the back lines, eyes can hardly see 

Don't tell this man to slow down 

'Cause he don't know what you mean 

Come on 

Won't you be there when it leaves 

Can't you hear me talkin baby 

Together we can race the breeze 

It shines out a light, in the darkest night 

To make us feel alright 

To make us feel alright 

I've prayed every night 

That you will wanna go there too 

Alright 

Well that sounds like the night train, blowin' its stack 

Spreading its wheels on homeward track 

Arrived here this morning, won't be here for long 

As fast as a shooting star, that's' what them eight wheels are for 

Won't you be there when it leaves 

Can't you hear me talkin' baby 

Together we can race the breeze 

Can't you hear me talkin' baby 

Together we can race the breeze 

Can't you hear me talkin' baby 

Together we can race the breeze
