Lirieke: Hayes Carll. Flowers & Liquor. Heaven Above.

Six-pack of something, bottle of pills
Got to be a better way to get my thrills
Lord you know sometime livin? ain?t hardly enough
Not when you?re waitin? on a sign from Heaven above.

Lyin? round the house wastin? sleep all day
Everything I wanted keeps slippin? away
What Can I do when my time flies like a dove
Won?t come back without a sign from Heaven above.

This nine-to-five work is giving me the blues
Wanna get my picture on the six-o?clock news
Oh pretty baby, maybe I ain?t got the stuff
But I can?t make a move without a sign from Heaven above.

I found me a lover, she?s six-foot-three
Everybody says she?s better looking than me
What can I say, I guess I?m only lucky in love
Lord it helps pass time when you?re waiting on Heaven above.

Bar full of strangers, fifty-cent beer
God Almighty what am I doin? here
Always end up on the floor when push comes to shove,
Can?t pick myself up without a sign from Heaven above.

But I gotta write it down, make everything right
Goin? to a party on Saturday night
Me oh my, what on Earth was I thinking of
Time rolls by when you?re waiting on Heaven above.
Yeah, life rolls by when you?re waiting on Heaven above.
