There will come a day when they gather and stand around Revel in the glory and my body in the ground There will be disciples and a shadow that covers me I won’t be afraid cause my soul has been set free
100 so miles from the Mobile River Lord I can’t have her so I got to kill her Heaven’s only days down the road A liquor store down on the county line Don’t want all the land but what’s next to mine Heaven’s only days down the road
I been insane since I was 9 Never was the cryin’ but the fightin’ kind Oh yeah Load up the gun full of regret I ain’t even pulled the trigger yet Oh yeah
Lost all the faith a man can own My hopes are empty and so is my soul Heaven’s only days down the road Look at my fate in the paper now I want to put her back but I don’t know how Heaven’s only days down the road
Nobody wants me down here no more Look at what I did to make then hate me for Oh yeah Can’t blame the whiskey or my Mammy’s ways 2 little girls are better off this way Oh yeah.
Oh heaven’s only days down the road Oh heaven’s only days down the road. Oh heaven’s only days down the road. Down the road. Down the road. Down the road.
