So I Can Take My Rest Lyrics

By Robert Earl Keen
I'm tired to the bone
My back is to the wall
I've been on my own
So long I can't recall
Chorus:
Take me in your arms tonight
Hold me to your breast
Tell me it will be allright
So I can take my rest
So I can take my rest
Maine to Mexico
Across the great divide
through rain and throug snow
ooh ooh I ride
The time for us is near
The lightning streaks the sky
The thunder in my ears
Echoes with goodbye
