There's a cold wind howlin' at the trailer door

And the wolf that's been scratchin'

Is coming back for more

This quilt that mama gave us

Is the only thing between us

And the sunrise

And I don't want to see the light

No, I don't want to see the light



I don't want to see the light of day

Just this once

Will you make it go away

Take this burden from me

Oh, tomorrow will keep

I don't want to see the light of day



'Cause there are bills on the table and they're overdue

And these dreams we've been chasin'

Well, they're far from comin' true

Oh, I'm not scared of tomorrow

I just need a little more of tonight

And I don't want to see the light

No, I don't want to see the light



I don't want to see the light of day

Just this once

Will you make it go away

Take this burden from me

Oh, tomorrow will keep

I don't want to see the light of day



Oh, take this burden from me

Oh, tomorrow will keep

I don't want to see the light of day

I don't want to see the light of day
