James Gang Garden Gate Lyrics

Garden Gate Lyrics

I'm sitting in the middle of a story

Would you like to read my line?

Sipping on a morning glory

Would you like to taste my wine?



Don't forget to tell the sun

If I sleep through the day

See him when the morning comes

Everything's okay



The captain's in the chartroom

Navigating on a star

He can't know where we're going

'Cause he don't know where we are



Don't you think that I don't know

How to tell the time

Can't you see that you can't sell me

Something that is mine



You just sit to talking

And I'm sure there's nothing said

Your book is lying open

And I don't think much is read



The dog is outside barking

At something he can't see

The garden gate is closing
