John Mellencamp Heaven Is a Lonely Place / [silence] / Rodeo Clown song lyrics
Barry, Barry, he's with Mary
Look like they could fly
Grandma's off her medicine
I think that I know why
People standing naked
Outside in the yard
A power ball slot machine
Looking for the winning card
Trying to get my mind straight now
It's a little bit narrow but I know somehow
'Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal'
But you know thou always will
Heaven is a lonely place
They're taking down those golden gates
Heaven is a lonely place
They're taking down those golden gates
Taking 'em down, board by board
Cheap vulgar innocence
Wears a wedding dress
Homophobic Hypocrites
Scaring us half to death
Journalistic lap dogs
Can't seem to find the truth
Crystal meth with the paymaster
Sipping on a hundred proof
Ain't you so hip now?
You sure look cool
Wonder what the price will be
For acting like such a fool
Heaven is a lonely place
They're taking down those golden gates
Heaven is a lonely place
They're taking down those golden gates
Taking 'em down, board by board
See the people crying
See the people crying
See the people crying
See the people crying
Heaven is a lonely place
They're taking down those golden gates
Taking 'em down, board by board
So I guess it'll never end
Brother, Hell, enemies, friends
Fire's burning outta control
In my soul tonight
There's just no hope for me
Might as well nail me to a tree
Here I am, just another case
Who cannot see the light
I guess I can't take a hint
Of what was said and what was meant
Somehow we always comes out blind
When it comes to our hearts
Heaven is a lonely place
Taking down those golden gates
Heaven is a lonely place
They're taking down those golden gates
Taking 'em down, board by board
See the people crying
See the people crying
See the people crying
See the people crying
