Revelation

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I'm crashin', I'm burnin', I'm Whitley on the bourbon There's a sunrise in the curtains, I'm blacked out on purpose She's sleepin' like an angel I'm hummin, Cat's in the cradle Need some Billy Graham on that cable instead of Jim Beam sittin' on the table [Pre-Chorus] Ooh I'm a long, long way from home Ooh But I can still see it through the smoke [Chorus] I wish I still sang to Jesus like the way we used to do at church Now throw 'em out from short, go around the horn three up three down in the first I been goin' too hard, I slipped pretty far Yeah, mama and Heaven both know I'm a man on a run with a hand on a gun I'm a father and a son who needs that holy ghost [Verse 2] There's a Chevron 'cross the highway with the lights on And I'm trippin' on the blue and red, she smoked my last cigarette Yeah, it's one of those nights where I'm gonna be up all night I'm seein' burning out stars in her eyes, it ain't why God made a sunrise [Chorus] I wish I still sang to Jesus like the way we used to do at church Now throw 'em out from short, go around the horn three up three down in the first I been goin' too hard, I slipped pretty far Yeah, mama and Heaven both know I'm a man on a run with a hand on a gun I'm a father and a son who needs that holy ghost [Bridge] Too young to feel this old Too drunk to even know Where I'm gonna end up Where I'm gonna go [Bridge] Ooh I'm a long, long way from home Ooh Too early, too late to get somebody on the phone [Chorus] I wish I still sang to Jesus like the way we used to do at church Now throw 'em out from short, go around the horn three up three down in the first I been goin' too hard, I slipped pretty far Yeah, mama and Heaven both know I'm a man on a run with a hand on a gun I'm a father and a son who needs that holy ghost [Outro] I'm a hard one to love, yeah, it runs in my blood I'm a father and a son who needs that Holy Ghost
