Hey Lord

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Hey Lord, I'm quite happy down here If that's all right with you Apparently it's restful time in heaven And I don't do that, do I? [Chorus] The bars are all closed, you're sweepin' the hall Tomorrow's a Sunday after all I'd say that the neon light is your best ever invention There's nothin' you can do for me I don't even want your sympathy I'm glad we're still friends, but tell me Why does my time down here have to end? When I know [Chorus] Up there the bars are all closed, you're asleep in the hall Tomorrow's a Monday, I seem to recall I got here despite my mother's best ever intentions [Bridge] Well, I don't wanna be a sinful man, oh no But if there is no drinkin' to do, no gamblin' or women too Then I'll stay down here as long as I can [Verse 3] Hey Lord, this phone call's costin' me A devil's fortune, you see I walk the line between Good and bad and where I wanna be [Chorus] Up there the bars are all closed, you're sweepin' the hall Tomorrow's a Sunday after all I got here despite my mother's best ever intentions
