Heaven Above Songtext
von Hayes Carll

Six-pack of somen, 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 givin′ 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


Well I found me a lover, she′s six-foot-three
Everybody says she's better lookin' than me
What can I say, I guess I′m only lucky in love
Lord it helps pass time when you′re waitin' 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 a Saturday night
Me oh my, what on Earth was I thinkin' of
Yeah time rolls by when you′re waitin' on Heaven above
Yeah, life rolls by when you're waitin′ on Heaven above
Six pack of somen
A bottle of pills
Got to be a better way
To get my thrills
