Shelby Lynne - Heaven's Only Days Down The Road lyrics

rate me

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.
