One of these days and probably soon
(I’m gonna go up to Heaven and meet my Lord)
Gonna cross that flame to the silver spring
(I’m gonna go up to Heaven and meet my Lord)
One of these days, I’m telling you the board
(I’m gonna go up to Heaven and meet my Lord)
I’m gonna slip right into that big black void
(I’m gonna go up to Heaven and meet my Lord)
Your rose is red, but you’re turning blue
Silver cord wrapped around your neck as you dangle from the Moon
Sold my body for all it was worth
(I’m gonna go up to Heaven and meet my Lord)
Still couldn’t buy peace from earth
(I’m gonna go up to Heaven and meet my Lord)
You could sleep with a hundred girls
(I’m gonna go up to Heaven and meet my Lord)
No man alive ever fucked the world
(I’m gonna go up to Heaven and meet my Lord)
I tried money, I tried drugs
There’s no pill so translucent, ain’t no powder white enough
I heard it’s said, though they never told
(I’m gonna go up to Heaven and meet my Lord)
The nose of angel is locked with gold
(I’m gonna go up to Heaven and meet my Lord)
And if I make it to the holy grail
(I’m gonna go up to Heaven and meet my Lord)
Gonna bag it up some other time
(I’m gonna go up to Heaven and meet my Lord)
And if you find yourself in hell
Kiss the devil on the lips, and you swear you would never tell
One of this days, and it won’t be long
(I’m gonna go up to Heaven and meet my Lord)
They’re gonna glorify me in a tragic song
(I’m gonna go up to Heaven and meet my Lord)
One of this days, I’m telling you, boy
(I’m gonna go up to Heaven and meet my Lord)
I’m gonna slip right into that big black void
(I’m gonna go up to Heaven and meet my Lord)
