	作词 : Morrison
	There's a small cafe on the outskirts of town
	I'll be there when the sun goes down
	Where the roadside bends
	And it twists and turns
	Every new generation
	And I'll be praying to my higher self
	Don't let me down, keep my feet on the ground
	There's a roadside jam playin' on the edge of town
	In a town called Paradise near the ancient highway
	When the train whistle blows
	All the sadness that Hank Williams knows
	And the river flows
	Call them pagan streams and it spins and turns
	In a factory in a street called Bread in East Belfast
	Where Georgie knows best
	What it's like to be Daniel in the lion's den
	Got so many friends only most of the time
	When the grass is high and the rabbit runs
	Though it's talkin' to you and I
	And every new generation comes to pay
	The dues of the organ grinder jam
	And the grinder's switch of the sacrifice
	Everybody made to be rational with understanding
	And I'll be praying to my higher self
	Oh, don't let me down, keep my feet on the ground
	What about all the people living in the nightmare hurt
	That won't go away no matter how hard they try
	They've got to pay time and time again, time and time again
	I'll be praying to my higher self
	And I'll be standin' there, where the boats go by
	When the sun is sinking way over the hill
	On a Friday evening when the sun goes down
	On the outskirts of town, I wanna slip away
	I wanna slip away, got to get away
	And I'll be praying to my higher self
	Don't let me down, keep my feet on the ground, don't let me down
	You'll be cryin' again, you'll be cryin' again, you'll be cryin' again
	By the same wipe the teardrops from your eyes
	Have to slip away in the evening when the sun goes down
	Over the hill, with a sense of wonder
	Everything gonna be right on a Friday evening
	All the cars go by all along down
	The ancient highway
	And I'll be praying, I'll be praying to my higher self
	Don't let me down, keep my feet, keep my feet on the ground
	Keep my feet on the ground
	Travelling like a stranger in the night, all along the ancient highway
	Got you in my sights, got you on my mind
	I'll be praying in the evening when the sun goes down
	Over the mountain, got to get you right in my sight
	As the beams on the cars from the overpass
	On the ancient highway shine like diamonds in the night
	Like diamonds in the night
	I'll be praying to my higher self, to my higher self
	Don't let me down, don't let me down
	And you'll be standing there, while the boats go by
	While the boats go by on a Friday evening
	Shining your light, shining your light on a Friday evening
	Got to slip away, got to slip away down that ancient highway
	In a town called Paradise, in a town, in a town
	All along, all along that road, all along that road,
	All along that road with the trancelike vision
	I'll be praying to my higher self, don't let me down, don't let me down
	Keep my feet on the ground, keep my feet on the ground,
	Keep my feet on the ground
	Friday evening got to slip away
	Watching the view from a car from the overpass
	And we're driving down that ancient road
	Shining like diamonds in the night, oh diamonds in the night
	All along the ancient highway
	Got you in my sight, got you in my mind
	Got you in my arms and I'm praying, and I'm gonna pray
	I'm gonna pray, to my higher self, ah don't let me down
	Don't let me down, give me the fire, ah give me the fire
