Album: Riotgod (2009)

High Time

Cigarette frozen to my lip
feel that pang gotta make that trip
no you wouldn't advise it saying to me
baby you don't know these folks
but baby understand -- I made my choice

I know I'm gonna make it
got faith in the Lord above
got faith in the Devil below
Faith stronger than a Mother's love
yeh - gotta little bit extra
like silver on a golden wing
and pretty soon y'gonna hear me sing
bout the good thing that I bring

Horror drive oh yeh round the town
promises aint calming my nerves down
doubts I cannot entertain while
waiting that eternity
I understand -- I made my choice

I know I'm gonna make it
got faith in the Lord above
got faith in the Devil below
Faith stronger than a Mother's love
yeh - gotta little bit extra
like silver on a golden wing
and pretty soon y'gonna hear me sing
bout the good thing that I bring

red light pass aint coming for us
deal went down without a fuss
destination aint but a mile
cant contain my infectious smile

oh sweet salvation
oh the joy it comes in waves
a sense of pleasure so depraved
lady luck blushes raises her veil up

now I got my good thing

This goddamed cycle
been repeating all my days
these blessed cursed ways
people tell me that I'm wrong that I should know better

waitin on that good thing
waiting on that good thing forever
waitin on that good thing
people tell me that I'm wrong that I should know better
