Jess Klein - I'll Be Alright

Sunset has cast upon the alley
Ive had no phone calls today
Theyre tall mountains
That keep you in that valley
And I miss you
But Im not the type to pray
If I were through
I know what Id say

Ill be alright
Ill be alright
Ill be alright
Oh I dont think Ill be calling you tonight
Ill be alright
Ill be alright
Ill be alright
Or Ill sing this til the morning comes to light

The girls came to work down in the factories
Left all their lovers behind
Sent home pennies to buy more seed
And now I send you one of mine
Keeping busy sure makes me feel fine

Ill be alright
Ill be alright
Ill be alright
Oh I dont think Ill be calling you tonight
Ill be alright
Ill be alright
Ill be alright
Or Ill sing this til the morning comes to light

Two blocks west on Harper is the lamplight
No one there has wisdom in their eyes
But when Im singing hard I feel alright
Its a hard one
Pride

Some years from now I imagine
When we all see the past as today
Youll saddle up your horse and wagon
And come, look at how far Ive strayed
Youll say, baby, you were always a city girl
Pretty, in a lonely kind of way

Ill be alright
Ill be alright
Ill be alright
Oh I dont think Ill be calling you tonight
Ill be alright
Ill be alright
Ill be alright
Or Ill sing this til the morning comes to light
Ill be alright
Ill be alright
Ill be alright
Or Ill sing this til the morning comes to light
