Six-pack of something, bottle of pills
|
Got to be a better way to get my thrills
|
Lord you know sometime livin' ain't hardly enough
|
Not when you're waitin' on a sign from Heaven above.
|
|
Lyin' round the house wastin' sleep all day
|
Everything I wanted keeps slippin' away
|
What Can I do when my time flies like a dove
|
Won't come back without a sign from Heaven above.
|
|
This nine-to-five work is giving me the blues
|
Wanna get my picture on the six-o'clock news
|
Oh pretty baby, maybe I ain't got the stuff
|
But I can't make a move without a sign from Heaven above.
|
I found me a lover, she's six-foot-three
|
Everybody says she's better looking than me
|
What can I say, I guess I'm only lucky in love
|
Lord it helps pass time when you're waiting on Heaven above.
|
|
Bar full of strangers, fifty-cent beer
|
God Almighty what am I doin' here
|
Always end up on the floor when push comes to shove,
|
Can't pick myself up without a sign from Heaven above.
|
|
But I gotta write it down, make everything right
|
Goin' to a party on Saturday night
|
Me oh my, what on Earth was I thinking of
|
Time rolls by when you're waiting on Heaven above.
|
Yeah, life rolls by when you're waiting on Heaven above.
|

Heaven Above
