Joe Ely Goodnight Dear Diary Lyrics

Now I lay me down to sleep
Leave the day behind
Pray the lord my soul to keep
I hope he cain't read my mind
Mother, mother, comfort me
Say everything is all right
Flames of hell surrounding me
Goodnight, dear diary, goodnight
Say everything will be all right
Good night, dear diary, goodnight

I remember how I felt When I was but a child
Wind would blow right through my soul
I would feel so wild
Mother, mother, comfort me
Say everything is all right
Flames of hell surrounding me
Goodnight dear diary goodnight
Say everything will be all right
Good night, dear diary, goodnight

Good night, dear diary, goodnight
