Oh my love, it's a long way down to the bottom when you're high and mighty and sacred, sacred
But I can't live my life born in sin and holding it in cause if we're all going down then I am going down in style
In a big black car I'll ride you take me over to the other side Elijah, Elijah
When I contemplate the matters of love They say pray, it's the only way to get above Well baby, believe me, it's easy to see how heaven is lost when you're only looking up
In a big black car I'll ride you take me over to the other side Elijah, Elijah
Oh I could be a good girl if that's what you'd like to see A Mother Mary Pollyanna child so cover up and sit tight button up and don't fight on your knees, begging please for someone to save me
When the big day comes, we'll know what really mattered most of all See I had a vision, all I did was listen and this is what I saw
Elijah, Elijah singing When you get to the other side, girl We'll we know how very hard you tried, girl But we're laughing on the other side And we're dancing on the other side Yeah, we're shouting on the other side In that big black car you ride Just take your time, take your time
