Long Way to Heaven

歌詞

Midnight in a sleepy town, Desperadoes shot the sheriff down in a blaze of fire Turned the ground a crimson red, Put a bullet through his head And left him for dead Every time I wake up, A gun stares me down And it's the life I've chosen Spilling blood on the ground My day's never done I've got the lawmen on my trail, Down to the wire It's a long, long way A long way to heaven Such a long, long way To your paradise Just a boy inside a man, Got a loaded six-gun in his hand He said fire when ready Took his aim, missed his mark Shot the bullet in the dark And he took down a child It's a long, long way Heaven's calling me Calling me, calling my name Well it's a long way down this dusty road The storm clouds they lead me on to nowhere And it's such a long, long way A long, long way Well it's the life I've chosen My time has come 'Cause every time I wake up, A gun stares me down, stares me down
