LIGHTFOOTIN'--Ray Murray

Now here's to you, you ol' son-of-a-gun
You taught me how to play when I was so young
From the Early Morning Rain, to Sundown's last refrain
I played all night long with ol' Lightfoot
So I bought your records, and I bought your books
I put the records on and I opened up them books
I turned the turn-table on
when I wrapped my guitar around me and I played along

Chorus:

So don't leave me here to play for myselve
I really get bored just doin' that stuff
Come'on Gord, You Are What I Am
I'm Alberta Bound on a Summer Breeze
Daylight Katy humming in my ear
Hope to play this for you next year

2nd Verse

So here's to thirty-odd years playing with you
Here's to All The Lovely Ladies you taught too
Here's to Somewhere USA, Just Looking At The Rain
Don't for get Cotton Jenny on your way back home

Repeat Chorus:
