Lyrics

Turning The Century

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I been singing for so long

I go from door to door

But it ain't the song I'm singing for

I've painted every town

The colors I ignore

No it ain't the change I'm looking for

Mouth of the river, spit out the sea

Shake the hands of time

Turning the century

I been fishing off the dock

Every beach and every brook

And it felt the same without the hook

I been humbled by the maker

I been given all I gave

And I don't expect, no I ain't asking to be saved

I found the combination, I've got the key

Standing at the door

Turning the century

Mouth of the river, spit out the sea

Stand for something more

Uncommon courtesy
