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 shroud 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
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
lost all the faith a man can own
my hopes are empty and so is my soul
look at my fate in the paper now
i want to put her back but i don’t know how
nobody wants me down here no more
look at what i did to make then hate me for
can’t blame the whiskey or their 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.
down the road.
