Lyrics

Dust bowl, Bible belt Got more churches than trees Raise me, praise me, couldn't save me Couldn't keep me on my knees Oh, boy, rave on down loop 289 That'll be the day you see me back In this fool's paradise Temptation's strong (Salvation's gone) I'm on my way To hell's half acre How will I ever How will I ever Get to heaven now Throwing stones from the top of your rock Thinking no one can see The secrets you hide behind Your southern hospitality On the strip the kids get lit So they can have a real good time Come Sunday they can just take their pick From the crucifix skyline Temptation's strong (Salvation's gone) I'm on my way To hell's half acre How will I ever How will I ever Get to heaven now Get to heaven now International airport A quarter after nine Paris Texas, Athens Georgia's Not what I had in mind As I'm getting out I laugh to myself 'Cause this is the only place Where as you're getting on the plane You see Buddy Holly's face I hear they hate me now Just like they hated you Maybe when I'm dead and gone I'm gonna get a statue too Temptation's strong (Salvation's gone) I'm on my way To hell's half acre How will I ever How will I ever Get to heaven now Get to heaven now How will I ever Get to heaven now
