John Schneider - It's a Short Walk from Heaven to Hell lyrics

rate me

You were God's best creation

But I didn't know what I had

Till it was too late

When a man's gettin' older

Seems the young girls get bolder

And temptations

Are sometimes too great

You gave me all kinds of reasons to stay

But like the fool that I am

I still walked away

And it's a short walk

From heaven to hell

A few steps from an angel

That loved me so well

When I left I shook hands

With the devil himself

And it's a short walk

From heaven to hell

She was young

I was foolish

But I needed that young thing

To tell me

I could still turn her on

What I took for affection

Was just your reflection

And that's where

The whole thing went wrong

Cause when the lovin' was over and done

What I took for love

She took for fun

And it's a short walk

From heaven to hell

A few steps from an angel

That loved me so well

When I left I shook hands

With the devil himself

And it's a short walk

From heaven to hell

Yeah, it's a short walk from heaven to hell
