It’s a long way to heaven it’s a long way back
Take it from a sinner it’s a cold hard fact
I kissed the bottle and it tastes like more
It ain’t what you got its what you’re looking for

Round and round, up and down the old ball rolls
I’m gonna miss it when I go
Ain’t gonna miss me

I’ve been over the moon and down on my luck
I’ve seen a little but it ain’t enough
Been down to the bottom and all the way up
I’ve seen a little but it ain’t enough
I’ve seen a little but it ain’t enough

It ain’t what you’ve done it’s what you’re gonna do
It aint where you been its where you’re going to
I’m sorry St Peter, I don’t mean to complain
Can you give it just minute ‘fore you call my name

Nothing worse, no nothing hurts like a stone unturned
I’ve got candles left to burn
And lessons left to learn

I’ve been over the moon and down on my luck
I’ve seen a little but it ain’t enough
Been down to the bottom and all the way up
I’ve seen a little but it ain’t enough
I’ve seen a little but it ain’t enough

I know we got a long long way to go
The other side of the world is only halfway home
There might be nothing down that road
But you never know, you never know
Round and round, up and down the old ball rolls
Ain’t gonna miss me when I go
Ain’t gonna miss me

Go back
