last night, while you were far away
I thought I saw the devil and heard him say
I've come to take away your soul
to a place where you can't play no rock-n-roll
 
well, I've got dreams that wake me in the night
gonna turn my hair to gray,
gonna make me fade away,
gonna make me see a little light
 
a man once told me with a smile
lock all your troubles in a fire
but then someone showed up with the key
you know you can't never hide what you can't see
 
and I've got dreams that wake me in the night
gonna turn my hair to gray,
gonna make me fade away,
gonna make me see a little light
 
dreams that wake me in the night
cryin' out for heaven sake,
gonna make me lay awake,
gonna make me see a little light

pretty girls with curly hair
I sometimes think that I should take my share
but that special one that means so much
I just don't want to lose her special touch
 
and I've got dreams that wake me in the night
gonna turn my hair turn to gray,
gonna make me fade away,
gonna make me see the light
 
dreams that wake me in the night
cryin' out for heaven sake
gonna make me lay awake,
gonna make me see a little light
gonna make me see a little liiiight
