Lord I don't ask for much
No I just try to stay in touch
I come when you call

So until that curtain fall

Lord you light up my pipe

You make me feel like it's allright
You lighten my load on this old cold island road
Lord you light up my pipe say it's allright

It's allright, you light up my pipe

There's no water on my floor

Landlord keep a knockin' down my door
I wear my daddy's rags I'm at the bottom of my bag


Lord you light up my pipe
You make me feel like it's allright
You lighten my load on this old cold island road

Lord you light up my pipe say it's allright
It's allright, you light up my pipe
Light me up, light me up


Lord the rats eat your food
Here come the union man to get some dues

My dealer's on the phone
Like a dog lookin' for a bone


Lord you light up my pipe
You make me feel like it's allright
You lighten our load on this old cold island road

Lord you light up my pipe say it's allright
It's allright, you light up my pipe
Light me up, light me up
