Artist/Band: Kelly Joe Phelps
Lyrics for Song: Red Light Nickel
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Kelly Joe Phelps



Trails the no home leave behind them

"God Bless You" signs on a street corner lamp post

Maybe a vet of his own alley way

An "Ain't drunk yet wanna be" shallow song

Ain't drunk yet wanna be



Bits of rubber hanging by a needle

Thread between childhood and where this is now

How does one wither or whittle down a tree

For blossoms that try to bear right circumstance

Blossoms that try to bear



So, it's good out there? Better than some

Folks keep trying to bring back that summer

That turned an un-returnable smile

Shoe string in the nether wind

Fish bite on a silver hook

Soft step in the stairwell that sounds like Dad



Hungry, it is, tired and old

30 or 80 years, ticket the same

The game stays the right of the passing in time

Surrogate rhyme lingers tip o' the tongue

Surrogate rhyme lingers



When I was young, my dreams flew in colors

Even did I as the sore ocean rumbled

Now my feet wander the length of new countries

Red light holding my vision to come

Green light holding my vision
