Six-pack of something, bottle of pills
Got to be a better way to get my thrills
Lord you know sometime livin aint hardly enough
Not when youre 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
Wont 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-oclock news
Oh pretty baby, maybe I aint got the stuff
But I cant make a move without a sign from Heaven above.
I found me a lover, shes six-foot-three
Everybody says shes better looking than me
What can I say, I guess Im only lucky in love
Lord it helps pass time when youre 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,
Cant 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 youre waiting on Heaven above.
Yeah, life rolls by when youre waiting on Heaven above.
