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