Saving Grace

One time around the block, two times around the clock, three times don't cross the little lady

So pretty and 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, have i lost and found my saving grace

Thankful for the gift my angels gave me

Born alone, we die alone

Now I'm just sitting here by the phone, waiting for the lord to send my calling

Street wise from the boulevard

Jesus only knows that she tries too hard, she's only trying to keep the sky from falling

Any man that says its heaven and hell, has probably got something useless to sell

You ask me if I'm saved, but whats it to ya

Blow a quarter, cop another eighth

You're running out of high, you're losing your faith, just throw your hands up and scream Hallelujah

Hallelujah(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 and roll the dice sex, drugs, and rock & roll are my only vice

I'm trying to figure out just whats here after

Hallelujah(x6)

Amen
