[Intro: melodic Holler motif] [Verse 1: Bubba male] A porch light doesn't chase a stranger Halfway down the county road It stands beside the open doorway And lets the weary traveler know [Chorus: Bubba mature male and Darlene unmistakably female] Just be the light, just be the love Let your life say more than words You can't change another's heart But you can play your faithful part Put a chair out by the door There's always room for one more [Verse 2: Darlene female] I can bring a meal to someone I can help when danger's near But I can't make a friend believe me Just because the truth is clear [Bridge: duet] Let me walk the path before me And invite instead of pull Let the welcome tell the story [Final Chorus: swelling full band, duet] Just be the light, just be the love Let your life say more than words You can't change another's heart But you can play your faithful part Put a chair out by the door There's always room for one more [Outro: instrumental resolve, no abrupt cutoff]
