Artist/Band: Arlo Guthrie
Lyrics for Song: Somebody Turned On The Light
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Arlo Guthrie



I've been to wild Montana

I went there in a storm

My boots were Texas leather

My Levis wet and torn



I loved it in Montana

Loved it in the storm

I think I'm gonna cross that river

I just might be reborn



New York, New York, winter, '61

Takin' me a city ride

Somebody tall must put out the lights

'Cause it got real dark outside



And I never saw the sun till '71

But I never gave up the fight

I sure was glad when I saw the dawn

Somebody, somebody turned on the light

Somebody turned on the light



Women, wine and fast red cars

And I couldn't see to read the signs

Somebody said "Whose life is this?"

And I said that it can't be mine



And I never saw the sun till '71

But I never gave up the fight

I sure was glad when I saw the dawn

Somebody, somebody turned on the light

Somebody turned on the light



When the world is wrong better right yourself

It'll make the dark clouds fly

Nobody tall can put out the lights

Just don't let the spirit die



If you never see the sun till '91

Don't you ever give up the fight

Sure be glad when you see the dawn

Somebody, somebody turns on the light

Somebody turns on the light
