I Want To Be Around Lyrics - Arlo Guthrie

words and music by Arlo Guthrie 

 

Remember back when I was born 

High up in the sky 

Looking down upon the scene 

I can't recall just why 

A white love light come up to me 

I followed it back down 

Sayin' this is the tune of the Earth my friends 

When I want to be around 

 

I want to be around 

When the stars fall on the ground 

Walking hand in hand with every man 

Sleeping in the sun with everyone 

 

Abraham come in one more time 

It must have been in L.A. 

He just said, "Joe won't you stay?" 

"All right, O.K.," he said to me 

"I got nothing else to do." 

So Abe walked in, he's back again 

Until his life is through 

 

He's going to be around 

While a whole new world goes down 

Walking hand in hand with every man 

Sleeping in the sun with everyone 

 

Every night by morning light 

I look up on the hill 

Digging all the cosmic sights 

And I recognize it's Will 

I said, "Oh Well, it's getting time 

I'm beginning to feel my load." 

 

He said, "Don't worry brother 

"Cause you and the others 

Will see it out on the road." 

 

And I want to be around 

When all over this world 

You can't hear a sound 'cept everyone 

Singing songs of glory in the sun
