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
|
