Saving Grace

One time around the block

Two times around the clock

Three times, don't cross the little lady (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" (save me)

(Am I) gainin' ground

(Am I) losin' face

(Have I) lost and found my saving grace

Thankful for the gift my angels gave me

Born alone, we die alone

'n' I'm just sittin' here by the phone

Waitin' for the Lord to send my callin'

Street wise from the boulevard

Jesus only knows that she tries too hard

She's only tryin' to keep the sky from fallin'

Any man who says it's Heaven and 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 high, you're losin' your faith

Throw your hands up and scream, "Hallelujah"

Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah

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 (chapter)

Deal the cards and roll the dice

Sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll are my only vice

Tryin' to figure out just what's here after (here after)

Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Amen
