about

Red sky at night,
Traveller's delight

lyrics

Verse 1
All across the world with my friends and me
Taking pictures as the days they go by
And everywhere I go it's the same story
Some fucker with something for me to buy

Chorus
While up in the sky a shooting star is born
As another star dies
And down in the village
A little child is born
You can hear its cries
As another man dies

Verse 2
Well I just want to go where I can be free
Where the welcome mats say hello and not goodbye
And every corner turned will be a new story
These things in life that money just can't buy

Chorus

Bridge
And I know how good it feels
To have sunlight on my face
But I know how good it will feel
To be home, home again

Verse 3
All across the world with my compadres
Some fall short while others stand beside
And on and on we seem to go
Stretch across the great divide.
