lyrics

Way up in the sky
You'll still be crying
All the bad things that you done
Come back to haunt you some...

Way up in the sky
The view gets frightening
Where pushing gets to shovin'
The words back, they hurt you some

I know, I know I know
It was a hum drum stay at home day
I was certain the same
Held true cross the beautiful bay
I will swear to you
On a stack bibles
Taller than the
Empire State
Building

Way Up In the Sky

Way up in the sky,
It's been decided.
If no one else in the race.
Writ large across your face.

Way up in the sky,
A fool could lead us,
The Butthead to the Beavis.
It feels good just letting go.

I know, I know, I know.
it was a ham slam catch as can May.
I was certain the same
Held true cross the beautiful bay.
I swear to you on a
Stack of Bibles rivaling
The Empire State
Building...

Way up high life's sweet here
In the sky
Sometimes I cry.,
When I'm all alone.

Way up in the Sky.

Way up in the sky,
You'd still be dying.
Mr. President I'm relying that the
bad words back hurt you some.

Way up in the sky,
You need forgiving
Friend to do the shriving
Words back they'll hurt you some.

Way up in the sky

Way up in the sky
