It’s a long way to heaven, it’s a long way back
Take it from a sinner, it’s a cold hard fact
I’ve kissed the bottle and it tastes like more
It ain’t what ya got, it’s what you’re looking for
Round and round, up and down
The old ball rolls
And I’m gonna miss you when I go
But you ain’t gonna miss me
I’ve been over the moon and down on my luck
I’ve seen a little but it ain’t enough
Been down to the bottom and all the way up
I’ve seen a little but it ain’t enough
I’ve seen a little but it ain’t enough
It ain’t what you’ve done, it’s what you’re gonna do
It ain’t were you’ve been, it’s where you’re going to
I’m sorry Saint Peter, I don’t mean to complain
But can you give just a minute before you call my name
There’s nothing worse, nothing hurts
Like a stone unturned
And I got candles left to burn
And lessons left to learn
I’ve been over the moon and down on my luck
I’ve seen a little but it ain’t enough
Been down to the bottom and all the way up
I’ve seen a little but it ain’t enough
I’ve seen a little but it ain’t enough
And I know we got, a long, long way to go
And I’m sorry but we’re only half way home
There might be nothing down that road
But you never know, no, you never know
Round and round, up and down
The old ball rolls
And I’m gonna miss you when I go
But you ain’t gonna miss me
I’ve been over the moon and down on my luck
I’ve seen a little but it ain’t enough
Been down to the bottom and all the way up
I’ve seen a little but it ain’t enough
I’ve seen a little but it ain’t enough
I’ve seen a little but it ain’t enough
I’ve seen a little but it ain’t enough
