Ryan Bingham - Southside Of Heaven lyrics

rate me

when I die lord wont you put me up on that train

when I die lord wont you put my soul up on a train

wont you send it southbound give it a cool bluesman name

Ive been lost out on those back roads so many times I've gone blind

well and losing faith in my family had drove me right out my damn mind

chorus:

but on the south side of heaven wont you take me home

cuz i've been broke down in Texas so long it's getting cold

Well I've been a desperado in West Texas so long I need a change

and in ten long years this old place aint seen a drop of rain

and that wind blows everyday just like a desert snow

like a lost bound train running on cocaine and outta control

(chorus)

well those Louisiana byways and those lonesome Texas Highways roll on

wont you take me where the poor man lives its where I call home

and can't you see that a breeze is just a change in pace

and money cant buy my soul because it comes from a hard earned place

(chorus)
