JUMA ​Lyrics Born On Friday Album

STONE HOUSE
This is my home built stone, upon stone, the wooden floor will softly softly moan
As I tap my feet to the moving beat and my guitar echoes through the room
The sound surrounds you and lifts you to the air

Sooner than you came you’ll find you are no longer there

Summer song don’t keep me long I’m being called away
I’ll come running back one warm summer’s day

Summer song don’t keep me long I’m being called away
I’ll come running back one, warm summer’s day

Stone house upon a summer’s hill

All is calm and all is all is still

Many a bird will watch you from that old windowsill
As this land you’ll fill with a feeling, that’ l send you softly reeling to the air
and sooner than you came you’ll find you are no longer there

Summer song don’t keep me long I’m, being called away
I’ll come running back one warm summer’s day

Summer song don’t keep me long I’m being called away
I’ll come running back one, warm summer’s day  
summer’s day  summer’s day  

STANDING IN THE RAIN

Think I’ll go and stand out in the rain
Pouring down like words telling me I’m insane
Think I’ll go and stand out in the rain

I can not believe I’ve come to feel this way again
but I think I’ll go and stand out in the rain

Well I’m tired of being comfortable I’m ready for a change
Your safe security for uncertainty I would freely exchange
You’re not everything unless that is what I make you

And I know that out there it’s miserable
but least then I know how I feel, and at least
I know it’s real

Think I’ll go and stand out in the rain,
Pouring down like words, telling me I’m insane,
Think I’ll go and stand out in the rain
I can not believe I’ve come to feel this way again but I think I’ll go and stand out in the rain

Irony can be so damned cruel he’s laughing real hard you know he takes me to be a fool
He’s right I believe oh how I wish everything could be easy
But you have never been easy

Tomorrow when the clouds clear and my mind is calm
I know that I will wonder what I, ever thought was wrong,
Yes tomorrow when the clouds clear and my mind is calm but until then

Think I’ll go and stand out in the rain,
Pouring down like words, telling me I’m insane
Think I’ll go and stand out in the rain
I can not believe I’ve come to feel this way again
but I think I’ll go and stand out in the rain
Yes I think I’ll go and stand out in the rain
Oh I think I’ll go and stand out in the rain

SILENT IS THE NIGHT

Silent is the night and I am calm
Please turn out your light and await the dawn
When that first light dances across my lawn
Then we’ll begin the morning song
Day has long since said her last goodbye I settle down down with a sigh
Everyone loves a green wooden rocking chair sitting peacefully I am content to stare

Silent is the night and I am calm
Please turn out your light and await the dawn
When that first light dances across my lawn
Then we’ll begin the morning song

Yes my friend we’ve had ourselves quite a time
The hour’s late and my thoughts are flowing like wine
Yes my friend I would love to pretend but all things must come to an end

Silent is the night and I am calm
Please turn out your light and await the dawn
When that first light dances across my lawn
Then we’ll begin the morning song

Silent is the night and I am calm
Please turn out your light and await the dawn
When that first light dances across my lawn
Then we’ll begin the morning song


SUNDAY NIGHTS AND WINE

Sunday nights and wine they go together just fine
Don’t you dare try and tell me how to better spend my time
Do with yours what you will but as for me I’m gonna drink my fill
Cause Sunday nights and wine they go together just fine
It’s been a rough couple days I’m sick of women and their ways you know they are more trouble than it’s worth
This whole world’s been dragging me down down down down down
But it’s a Sunday night and things are looking better

Sunday nights and wine they go together just fine
Don’t you dare try and tell me how to better spend my time
Do with yours what you will but as for me I’m gonna drink my fill
Cause Sunday nights and wine they go together just fine

Watch as my cares slip away just like those hot summer days have a way of doing and though my thought it may be suffering at least my morale is improving cause it’s a Sunday night and things are looking better

Soon soon Monday morning will be coming my way
with all the hang-ups and the let downs of any other day But until then yes until then

Sunday nights and wine they go together just fine
Don’t you dare try and tell me how to better spend my time
Do with yours what you will but as for me I’m gonna drink my fill
Cause Sunday nights and wine they go together just fine

BE WITH US ALL

Be with us all  
Be with us all  
Be with us all

Those dark days are coming

Keep on striding on
Keep on striding on
Keep on striding on

Those dark days are coming
What hope do you see in today
Tomorrow Lord knows
that’ll come our way
Dark clouds gathering on every horizon
Oh Lord here comes the rain

Be with us all  
Be with us all  
Be with us all

Those dark days are coming and when that rain falls you know we are we are all gonna get wet
Rich and poor alike there are there are no exceptions and it’s a blind man that doesn’t see it coming and a fool’s fool who sees any hope in running

War has ravaged our land now empty are the hands of the women and the child
You know we’ve all gone wild and I can see no relief
Certainly no relief from your engines of destruction
And certainly no relief from your policies of corruption
Lord deliver me

J ANUARY NIGHT

Surrender to the streetlights and this January night
I’m gonna see myself a honky-tonk band it’s gonna make me feel alright
and the stars overhead look bleary
I’ve got a lot on my mind

Going to do my very best to leave it all behind
Oh why must you linger in the other room
When I know you can hear that big bass boom

Put aside your sorrows please come and make yourself at ease
The band is playing hot and sweet

Well won’t you make that guitar sing, banish my blues
Well won’t you make that guitar cry
 I feel so alive

There’s a commotion on the tracks tonight and a certain madness in the air
But I’m caught up in the feeling of it all and as of now I have no cares

But all moods are temporary and this one is nearly past

You have left for home but the band’s still playing fast

Well won’t you make that guitar sing banish my blues

Well won’t you make that guitar cry, I feel so alive

Well the holy rollers are out tonight you better watch where it is you go
If you didn’t know oh boy they’re out to steal your soul

And the traffic lights they shine into my eyes as I make my way home
I’m going home
