Keep on running Down that long black road You'll find sunshine and flowers And maybe love to behold But, can you keep a secret?
Keep on reaching Up for a higher ground But don't keep on preaching From that book you found Can you keep a secret?
I can play it on an old guitar You can sing it like a monkey man Don't speak of soul 'cause you've got none And all the kids in a funky bar Dressing down like a bogeyman If they don't mind and you don't mind I'm gonna write that in a song
But, can you keep a secret?
On the cover of a magazine You wore a face that I've seldom seen You spilled your guts but you've got none You're driving round in a beat up car That you found on the road you run If they don't mind and you don't mind I'm gonna write that in a song
