Lyrics for Sweet Baby James by James Taylor:
| | | Artist: | James Taylor |
| | Album: | James Taylor Live (Disc 1 | | Track: | Sweet Baby James | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 88 | | | | Lyrics: | There is a young cowboy he lives on the range
His horse and his cattle are his only
companions
He works in the saddle and he sleeps in the canyons
Waiting for Summer, his
pastures to change
And as the moon rises he sits by his fire
Thinking about
women and glasses of beer
And closing his eyes as the doggies retire
He sings out a
song which is soft but it's clear
As if maybe someone could hear
(Chorus)
Goodnight you moonlight ladies
Rockabye sweet baby James
Deep greens and blues
are the colors I choose
Won't you let me go down in my dreams
And rockabye sweet baby
James
Now the first of December was covered with snow
And so was the turnpike
from Stockbridge to Boston
Lord, the Berkshires seemed dream-like on account of that frosting
With ten miles behind me and ten thousand more to go
There's a song that they
sing when they take to the highway
A song that they sing when they take to the sea
A
song that they sing of their home in the sky
Maybe you can believe it if it helps you to
sleep
But singing works just fine for me
