lyrics

I've got a long way before i get to heaven
It takes a long time to learn how to fly
but when the day comes ill be shining like a relic
just a flappin' wings and singin' upon high

For now I'm running down the highway; under bridges, between legs
I'm raising hell on Earth and chasing pleasure to the grave
With the Lord by my side i do what i please
oh, wont you be there with me come Sunday?

Ive got a long way before i get to heaven
it takes a long time to learn how to fly
but all the good books say that i can be forgiven
if i just lay my pistols down and walk toward the light

When the day finally comes that i am cleansed and sitting high
I will walk the streets of heaven, with angles harmonize
Ill jump up on a bar stool at the end of everyday
and take a double shot of love with Hemingway and Kurt Cobain

I got a long way before i get to heaven
It takes a long time to learn how to fly
its a hard road in this world that we're livin' in
it makes a good man want to turn to the night
