Saving Grace

Saving Grace
One time around the block
2 times around the clock
3 times don't cross the little lady
So pretty & oh so bold
got a heart full of gold on a lonely road
she said "I don't even think that God can save me"

(Am I) gaining ground
(Am I) losing face
(Am I) lost & found by Saving Grace
Thankful for the gift My Angel's gave me
Born alone
We die alone
nuttin' but sittin' here by the phone
waitin for the Lord to send my callin'
Street wise from the boulevard
Jesus only knows that she tries to hard
She's only tryin' to keep the sky from fallin'
Any man says it's Heaven & Hell
Prob'ly got somethin' useless to sell
You ask me if I'm saved but what's it to ya?
Blow a quarter
cop another eight
you're runnin' out of hide you're losin' your faith
Throw your hands up & scream halleluiah
halleluiah x4 Amen
One time around the sun
another year older and my work ain't done
it's time for me to write the final chapter
Deal the cards & roll the dice
sex drugs & rock n roll are my only vice
tryin' to figure out just what's here after
halleluiah x6 Amen
